Clear Plastic Small Hive Beetle Trap Two trap sections, one central bait section. Can be baited with a combination of a little honey and pollen. Apple cider vinegar can also be used as a bait material in the center section. Easy installation, hang over top bar of frame. Install between the first two and the last two frames in the brood chamber. Safe for larvae, queen, workers, and drones Can be used any time SHB are present Will also trap earwigs and other small insect pests inside hive Use after doing splits to keep the hive strong No poisons, no pesticides Safe for honey supers Fill traps about 1/2 of capacity. Two per brood chamber usually sufficient Use as part of an integrated pest management system for your hives Can be used with mineral oil, vegetable oil, hydrated lime, or dry capture. Bait is NOT included but you will receive a recipe for bait with the order. Mineral Oil or vegetable oil can go rancid, especially after capturing a few beetles. The odor of the dead beetles repels other beetles from the trap. Hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide, slaked lime) does not create an odor from dead beetles. CAUTION: Hydrated lime can cause burns to skin. DO NOT INHALE. DO NOT DROP ON BEES. Contact with hydrated lime will KILL BEES and other insects. It works by dehydrating the body of the beetle. Do not spill oil on bees. You can also trap without baiting but it may not be as effective. When full, or no longer needed, just dump the contents and rinse out the trap. DO NOT DUMP the traps near the hives. Dispose of oil or lime in garbage.
