how do you deal with hive beetles and wax moths? I have 1 hive and have lost hives to wax moths and have had low honey production for years, i think because of hive beetles. I am down to 1 hive from 3.
For beetles, we take Swiffer sheets and cut them in half. I put half a sheet in opposite corners of each box. I also use beetle blaster traps in each box. This seems to help control them.
I don't think your videos are too long. I am enjoying the honey I got from you. Keep it up.
I also am located in southern illinois.
