Possibly. Worth a test, which wouldn't cost more than 20 bucks. However even if his specific method isn't the best he has discovered a weakness we may be able to exploit. A substance that the SHB cannot cross. I actually painted my two hives with never wet when I was in NC and never had more than a handful of beetles at a time. I thought it was a fluke or that my landlord had put some sort of pesticide in the surrounding ground before I moved in. Now I'm wondering if it was because I painted the entrance and the beetles had a difficult time accessing the hive. Couldn't get a grip lol.

Very entertaining, but I expect in a real hive they would eventually just fly up to the comb, they are very good flyers, even if they would rather walk.Brad KosibaOn Mon, Apr 24, 2017 at 3:58 PM, Caleb Haynes <calebthaynes AT gmail.com> wrote:Have y'all seen this?
