"Hand gathering works well in the early days of infestation. There are only
a few scouts that show up first. You can easily pick them off and squish
them between your fingers."

I prefer tapping the beetles into a can of water (hot or cold) with a drop of
detergent. When you're sure they're dead, discard.
