"If you can do that, you can be a scientist!" Me, a Citizen Scientist: Thank you for spreading awareness of Citizen Science (Science done by people who aren't accredited). It's every bit as important as accredited science, because we can study things that interest us regardless of whether we're being funded for it or not.

A few major topics that were not discussed are that small hive beetles(SHB) require a more humid climate in order for larvae to pupate. Areas of the USA that have a relative humidity of 45% or lower have either few or no SHB issues. Second, SHB actually do infest compost piles that have a high fruit content. This has been studied and documented in Hawaii.

Opened up a hive yesterday and I can smell it. There is a problem with small hive beetles. I hope I can save the colony but I am not hopeful. This video really helped me understand what is going on. and how to combat the problem. Thank you for posting the video.

Thank you... well said! I get angry when I see videos from beekeepers who throw comb on the ground or put hive parts on the ground..its disgusting!

We know that the SHB eggs will die when frozen, at what temperature does SHB eggs die above freezing?? Phillip Hall

No disrespect to this presentation at all. It covers all aspects of dealing with SHB but when the beetle gets up in the comb and produces larvae it is too late. Preventing the beetle getting up into the hive in the first place is essential. Believe me.One beekeeper has the answer and IT WORKS. He is a hobbyist with 31 hives. During his First Spring inspection of all 31 he found only one beetle up on the comb and that one only managed to get there by climbing on a leaf which had blown in the entrance. If you use his method you will not lose a hive to 'sliming' again. You will not have Beetle Larvae to deal with again, in the hive or in the ground.He has uploaded on KZfaq 4 very clear videos explaining how EVERY beekeeper can easily make the slight changes needed to any hive size. It really is simple and cheap. Enter his name in the KZfaq search window and go for it. JEFF WILLARD can save your bees.

I watched his videos and I done it and it did NOT work.Beetles climbed all over the sprayed parts.

Hive beetles smell a hive from at least 1 kilometre away and fly to it.....fly to it....fly to it...they dont need to climb up onto it from the ground. They have wings. Sorry but think about it

Thank you very much for these awesome lectures, and valuable information on a topic that is very close to my heart. but my only reservation is when you talk about bees, and describing their behavior, you frequently say the words: miracles and fascinating, instead of saying this an example of evolutionary adaptation, just kidding, thank you again, From the author of the social brain, an operator ‘s manual

Or maybe the researcher or the entity that funded their research and the production of that video wants to control the distribution of their intellectual property. It was licensed to Mr. Ellis and the Nat'l Honey Show for presentation there and to that audience, but not on KZfaq. Don't be so paranoid and cynical.

@@elephantcup Which is exactly the case, the videos were shared with permission for use in the live presentation. No one really envisaged it going onto KZfaq at the time. More recent videos they get permission for use in the presentation, and the publication of the presentation.

At what freezing temperature the SHB itself larva and egg will die?

I think the beetles drag pheromone from being attacked by bees all over the hive. You would need a control group of beetles in fabricated comb to see . Otherwise your comb would have pheromone all over it anyhow from bee defense.Maybe a freshly printed out Flow hive comb , filled with processed honey as to remove pheromone.No bees allowed in the control group . That would tell you where , if any mimic of pheromone was coming from.
