Lanterns repel midges

[Luno]

Lanterns... attract midges? Will consider!

(Would be cute if they attracted bugs generally, wouldn't it? Kinda cool if e.g. moths and such swarmed around them.)

+1, specially if the midges stop chasing people if they get distracted by lanterns and stuff.

+1 also midges spawned in the swamp should be able to carry swamp fever out of it as they roam

could have similar mechanic with smoking/ dealing with bee skeps?

Actually yeah that'd be a cool mechanic and would give me a real reason to build lanterns.

Now when can we build bug nets that we can hold in our hands that will let us capture bugs more easily (increased range, slow down their speed ala the undone rabbit shoe nerf?) and lets us catch uncatchable bugs (midges, ant swarms, bee swarms etc)?
