These reusable small hive beetle traps for trapping beetles inside of a beehive without using any harsh chemicals inside the hive. Each trap works to catch beetles and prevents them from getting outside the trap and laying eggs. The reusable traps are halfway filled with food-grade oil and closed. They are hung between two frames in a beehive in the top super or box. As beetles hide from the bees, they are forced into the trap and killed.
Each trap has a fully removable top to make it easier to add food-grade oil without spilling, as well as to make cleaning the traps out of beetles and oil easy. Traps can be easily cleaned out, refilled with oil, and placed in the hive.
Our traps are a natural and organic approach to helping keep small hive beetles and their larvae from impacting your backyard beehive. Instead of adding chemicals, our traps work with the bee's natural tendency to corral beetles.
