These are cheap and easy traps that seem to do the job. If you have a hive
on your roof you will not have to worry about too much about hive beetles as
the larva need to bury themselves in the ground around the hive in order to
complete their life cycle.

When I checked the hive today there seemed to be an unusually large number of dead bees. When I opened the hive everything looked ok and there was a lot of activity. I will check again tomorrow, but is there anything special I should be on the lookout for?
Thanks,
Richard
Also, I found some small hive beetles in my hive today, so there is clearly
an infestation to consider in each of your hives.
