I remember always being curious about those basic lightsticks. Quite a few years back I tried experimenting with the liquid inside the lightick after illumination. Being that it seemed very non toxic, I was not too afraid of the substance, Being that it contains only H202 (hydrogen peroxide) 2CO2, 2OH, and 2CO2 along with dye. So, I was later curious on how this would affect insects. In a not-so-humane experiment, I placed a drop of the glow stick substance on a common honey-bee, and it turned the bee blue, and the glowstick was green. I tried this with a variety of light colored lightsticks and the same result occured. Also the excess of the liquid was harmful or fatal to the bee, so I dont advise this be done liberally. So, any explanation on this result? Or, any other info on lightsticks?
