Being a hunter and in the woods all summer shooting 3D I absolutely think vaping brings the bugs in. Use to smoke and bugs would stay away. When really bad I would fire my Thermocell and that with smoking would keep them away. vaping it seems the Thermocell doesn't work until I am standing still. I definitely think vaping attracts bugs and biting things.

I don't know about vape attracting bugs. Here the varments don't need an atractant. There are usually several getting swatted and hundreds more in a holding pattern waiting for a landing space. I did find that my 510 with the red light attracted humming birds. When I first started vaping, i walked out of my storage building and a humming bird was right in front of me. Every time I took a puff, it would be there for a good 30 minutes.

I don't know if vaping attracts insects, I do know that when I was a smoker, cig smoke repelled insects. Now that I vape, I have as many around me as my hubby always has. I still have the habit of blowing vape at them like I used to do with smoke. They don't go away :(

guess that proves vape is harmless :)
