What Is Black Light? The human eye can perceive a spectrum of visible light ranging from the lowest frequency of red to the highest frequency of violet. Above violet, there exists a range of light called ultraviolet (UV), which is invisible to us. UV radiation is classified into three types: UV-A, UV-B, and the less common UV-C.

UV-A has the longest wavelength of the three, while UV-B is in the middle, and UV-C has the shortest. A blacklight is an artificial source of UV-A light, which is invisible to the human eye but can cause certain materials to glow.

Waterproof UV Flashlight The Escolite Blacklight pet urine detection flashlight is made of high-quality aluminum and is designed for finding puppy/cat urine or other stains. This mini black light flashlight is suitable for moving around and looking for small items.

Compact and Portable The Escolite UV flashlight is sturdy, lightweight, and brighter than other black light options for pet urine detection. The 12 LED mini UV light comes in a pack of 2, making it a great choice for pet owners.

UV-A Blacklight Safety Exposure to UV-A from blacklights is well below the recognized safe limits and would be much lower than your exposure to UV-A while outdoors. However, it is recommended not to shine the UV flashlight directly into your eyes for an extended period.

Effective Use of Blacklights Blacklights are only effective in detecting dry pet urine. For best results, make the area as dark as possible and use high-quality alkaline batteries (not rechargeable).

Scorpion Fluorescence Scorpions glow a bluish-green under ultraviolet or black light. This is partially due to the beta-carboline in their outer cuticle. The intensity of their glow depends on the darkness, the type of UV light, and the sclerotisation (hardening and darkening) of their exoskeleton.

Uranium Glass Glow Uranium glass, created by adding oxidized uranium to the mixture, can appear similar to other types of glass to the naked eye. However, under a UV blacklight, the electromagnetic radiation of the uranium makes the glass fluoresce, giving it a distinctive glow.

Glow-in-the-Dark Parties Blacklights are often used to make white and neon-colored objects fluoresce, creating a visually spectacular effect at glow-in-the-dark parties. The combination of bright, colorful, neon-colored decorations and costumes glowing under UV blacklights is what makes these events so captivating.

Pet Urine Detection Blacklights can be used to spot old animal stains that are not visible to the naked eye. The proteins and phosphorus in pet urine will glow under UV light, revealing the source of odors and hidden stains. This can be helpful in finding and properly cleaning up pet accidents.

Currency and Blacklight Security threads in US currency, such as the new 50 USD note, will glow when held under ultraviolet light. On the 100 USD note, the thread glows pink, while on the 50 USD note, it glows yellow.

Tomato Hornworm Detection The tomato hornworm will also glow under a blacklight. By shining the UV flashlight on your tomato plants, you can easily spot and dispose of these pests, preventing them from spreading to the rest of your plants.
