50-Pack Black Plastic Hive Beetle Catchers for Beekeeping
Product description
Generous 50-piece supply: This package contains fifty identical beetle catchers, providing enough units to outfit multiple colonies or to keep spare traps on hand for routine cleaning and replacement.
Sturdy black plastic build: Each trap is injection-molded from robust black plastic that resists cracking and can be used season after season. The material wipes clean and holds up well under normal apiary conditions.
Flip-top access for baiting: The top flips open without disturbing hive activity, letting you add a bait such as apple cider vinegar mixed with a bit of honey, or a dash of cooking oil, then close it for continuous protection against small hive beetles.
Simple cleaning and compact storage: Smooth surfaces rinse quickly and the flat profile allows the traps to be stacked, minimizing storage space and simplifying inventory management between seasons.
Fits standard hive layouts: Sized to accommodate most conventional beehives, these traps can be placed on the bottom board or slid between frames. They suit commercial farms, professional apiaries, and backyard beekeepers alike.
Pros

VerdictA cost-effective, practical option for beekeepers who need multiple, reusable beetle traps. Durable construction, low-profile design, and easy maintenance make this set a solid choice for regular hive protection.

Reliable traps that protect colonies
These 50 beetle catchers have made pest control much easier across my apiary. The rigid black plastic endures regular handling, and the thin profile slides between frames without disturbing the bees. A little food-grade oil or vinegar-honey mix turns them into effective traps, and having so many in one pack means I can rotate and clean units without leaving a hive unprotected.
