Beetle Baitable Jail

This reusable beetle trap has 3 compartments. Fill the outer two compartments halfway with vegetable oil, mineral oil, or any food-grade oil. For the middle compartment, add your favorite beetle bait (apple cider vinegar is a great option). Be sure not to overfill the outer compartments; if they’re too full, beetles may escape rather than drowning in the oil. Hang the trap by its special hanger between two frames.

When the trap fills with beetles, simply open the hinged lids for easy cleaning. Refill and repeat as needed!
