Organic Treatment For Hive Beetles

BEEKEEPERSTIPS.COM

There are many times when an organic treatment for a pest is desirable. In this article, we have a look at the practicality of a simple organic treatment for hive beetles.

Aethina tumida is the scientific name of the hive beetle. The adult beetles are about the size of two match heads. They are small black beetles that lay their eggs in brood and pollen.

1.What Is The Small Hive Beetle?

Beehives!! They love the smell of drying honey. However, in Africa, the hive beetle is more of a scavenger than an actual problem in inhabited hives.

2. What Are Small Hive Beetles Attracted To?

What Do You Put In Hive Beetle Traps?

The answer is basically you want to have a vinegar smell – use a bit of cloudy cider vinegar and you can add a little mead.

3.

Does Diatomaceous Earth Kill Hive Beetles?

Probably. It will also kill bees. It will also get in your honey. It will get in your lungs. It may damage your health. It will potentially damage the health of other people.

4.

Yes. It will not harm you physically. But it tastes really foul and gets a sweaty disgusting flavor and you will not enjoy the taste.

5. Can You Eat Honey With Hive Beetle Larvae?

ADVICE

If we develop an organic treatment for hive beetles with essential oil, toxic specks of dust, and so on, we are solving a problem that does not need to be solved.
