Nobody really knows why this happens.
ANS2:Insects are attracted to flames as well as to fluorescent lights. Fire radiates a lot of heat (infra red radiation) and visible light. Fluorescent lights give off very little heat. That would lead most people to conclude that it is the light, rather than the heat that attracts them.
Insect lights use UV light to attract insects to their doom. Insects can see UV light and some insects can detect polarized light.

Are night insects attracted to lamps because of heat or light?
Insects have evolved in earlier ages in which there was generally no light at night other than the moon, and they navigate with the help of the moon. Lights at night are confused with the moon and lead to navigational error, making it seem that insects are attracted to light.
What attracts insects?
Both, depending on the bug. Some bugs are attracted to heat, like sandflies, and some others are attracted to light, like moths. There are even more things that bugs are attracted to. Mosquitoes are attracted to carbon dioxide, a gas that you produce by breathing out!
Moths are attracted to light or heat more?
Nothing attracts insects to heat or light, they attract themselves because they are used to the sun or moon by their side. It is a navigation aid for them. so therefore, they aren't attracted by anything.

Why are wasps attracted to grass?
Well...A wasp's nest is his castle, and he will defend it with utmost ferocity. If you see a nest, leave it well alone. Wasps are also attracted to light, so as it starts to get dark, try to avoid switching on outdoor lamps or using candles until you really have to. That is what they do and why they do it is because...Many insects other than moths are attracted to light, in fact most insects can be found in greater or smaller numbers at light traps. Often in lighting strips you will find many insect species that have simply been attracted there by the light, moths, flies etc, and sometimes wasps. They seem to be able to find their way in not out again.Wasps are carniverous insects and will cut up and eat or take to their nest for the larvae to feed on, almost any creature or part thereof. They may be able to scent the dead insects in the light fittings, or it may just be the light that attracts them. They certainly won't be there to lay eggs. Only the Queen wasp can do that and she builds a nest for that purpose.This Information was got from Harry Eales Ancient EntomologistHope this helped :)
