pest control

The disposable Beetle Bomb is designed to trap & control populations of Small Hive Beetle (Aethina tumida).
The traps are inserted between the outer frames of the top box.
Fill with approximately 25mL canola or sunflower oil.
Insert between the outer-most frames as the SHB tends to try to attack the colony and its stores at the periphery.
