Today we are adding beetle bait with boric acid In cassettes to the hives to try and control the hive beetles. #baldheadedbeekeeper #beekeeper #northwestfloridabeekeeping #beetletraps #comfortpro
Boric acid works on beetles. A bit slow to kill, but it works. I used the beetle jails for a while and then went back to the beetle blasters. Then I quit with all of them. But the little traps you showed definitely work. Folks use them and see good results. Hope you get them built up. Watch for those beetle larvae after a couple days of the patty being in there. Take care my friend!!
Thanks for the video! Love the guineas in the background!

Looks like our weather will start clearing Wednesday so I will start checking for larvae and see how much they have consumed.
