Bugs are more attracted to light emitted from an electrical source (such as an outside light fixture) rather than a heat source with an open flame. It is uncommon to see bugs in or around the tabletop heater due to the light emitted by the flame. Insects may however be attracted to the heat radiating from the unit.
