Stunning artworks are revealed when a Latvian passport is held under UV light.

That's when the pages of the passport reveal hidden images of the country's forests, rivers, lakes, and wildlife, making it an interactive homage to Latvia's natural beauty.

Reindeer vision may have evolved to spot favorite food in the snowy dark of winter

"#reindeer eyes change between summer and winter... they see the winter world as a shade of #purple, similar to how a person would see a room with a black light... the answer is tied to what #UVlight doesn't reflect from—C. rangiferina and other bushy #lichens."

In my continued war on Tobacco Hornworms I’ve found success using UV light to detect much smaller under 1 inch worms just starting to feast but more importantly single eggs mostly spotted on the underside of leaves. Last night along with over a dozen eggs and 4 inch long worms I spotted much smaller babies, including this barely millimeter long guy just emerging. #TobaccoHornWorm #Pests #Worms #UVLight #Tomato #Gardening #Garden #GrowYourOwn #DIY #Hunting #Insects

Today I learned something about UV light, after 20 years of using biosafety cabinets level 2...
UV light, only when the cabinet window is closed, is used whenever we want to be sure that the following experiment won't be contaminated.

However, some major authorities *advise against it*, mainly because of the risk of irradiating the user and because it is no substitute for proper cleaning (which I knew). Indeed, when it's dirty, microbes are shielded from decontamination.
