Small hive beetles hide in dark, tight spaces during the day and come out to raid comb and pollen at night — the Beetle Barn works by giving them exactly what they're looking for, then trapping them there. Each barn holds a small amount of vegetable oil or diatomaceous earth; beetles crawl in to hide and don't crawl back out. Key Features Bait-based trapping — beetles are drawn in to hide, not lured by pheromone or chemical attractant Works with vegetable oil or diatomaceous earth as the kill agent — no pesticides needed inside the hive Low profile — sits on top of the frames without disrupting the brood nest Reusable — empty, clean, and refill for repeated use through the season Sold as a 10-pack — enough to run several traps per hive or cover multiple hives at once How to Use It Fill the barn about halfway with vegetable oil or diatomaceous earth, then set it on top of the frames under the inner cover. Beetles running from bees dive in to hide and get trapped in the oil or die from the diatomaceous earth. Check and refill every few weeks during beetle season.
