Can UV lighting be seen or felt?

From what I know, UV rays stands for ultraviolet radiation. In nature UV lights can`t be seen, because they`re wave lengths are shorter than visible light. But special florescent light bulbs or black lights do give off long-wave UV radiation that is very close to the violet color of the visible spectrum. So it gives of a blackish/ very dark purplish color. You don`t really feel UV light unless you stay and the sun to long and get sun burnt. So all in all you can`t see UV lights or feel them, but you can see an stretched wavelengths of UV and the side effects of have to much UV light.

Is not a reason to avoid UV radiation?

There are at least four good reasons not to avoid UV radiation. One of these is when it is used to kill germs. Another use is for "curing". This is what the dentist does when he puts a UV light into your mouth, to cure the bonding material. A third use is to detect counterfeit paper money. You may see a cashier put a bill under a UV lamp to check its authenticity. And the last of the four that I will supply is when they aim a UV light at your hand or arm to check to see if you are allowed to reenter a venue!
