I am more interested right now in finding an effective natural way to deal with SHBs. Maybe I should let my hedgehog eat them.
Not wishing to deny your hedgehog a good feast, there must surely be some other way of killing SHB's in the hive. Resin seems to be an answer (if that's what the bees do) so what about some sort of sticky stuff that attracts them perhaps using one of their (dare I use the word on an open forum) "sexual" pheremones under a mesh floor that the bees can't reach, but the beetles can. Come on you clever scientists get your thinking hats on QUICK!
Ok so it's maybe a simplistic female view, but we really have to do something, and by the way what on earth are AHB's.
