Better Beetle Blaster - Effective Beetle Control Solution

Better Beetle Blaster

The Better Beetle Blaster is an effective and easy-to-use trap designed to help beekeepers control small hive beetles (Aethina tumida), a common pest that can damage honeybee colonies. This lightweight, disposable trap provides a chemical-free solution to reduce beetle populations and protect hive health.

Made from durable, food-grade plastic, the Better Beetle Blaster is designed to fit neatly between the frames of a Langstroth hive. It features a narrow, elongated reservoir that is filled with a non-toxic trapping liquid, such as vegetable oil or mineral oil. When small hive beetles enter the trap seeking refuge, they become coated in the liquid and are unable to escape, effectively reducing their numbers.

The slim, low-profile design ensures that it does not disrupt the natural movement of bees within the hive. Unlike other pest control methods, the Better Beetle Blaster does not require chemicals or pesticides, making it a safe and eco-friendly option for both bees and beekeepers.

Installation is quick and simple—beekeepers place the trap between frames in the hive, and bees naturally chase the beetles into it. Once full, the trap can be easily removed and replaced, requiring minimal maintenance. Regular use helps prevent beetle infestations, reducing stress on the colony and preserving honey quality.

Ideal for both hobbyist and commercial beekeepers, the Better Beetle Blaster is a cost-effective, disposable, and highly efficient tool for managing small hive beetles. By integrating this trap into routine hive maintenance, beekeepers can protect their colonies from beetle-related damage while maintaining a healthier hive environment.
