Got rid of telescoping covers and switched to migratory covers.
SHB love the crack between the lip of the cover and the hive body.
I am making new covers that are flat with no outer rim for the SHB to hide.

Well actually that gets them where you can smush them rather than hiding further down in the hive.
That's about 80 hive beetles. I did smash them with a hive tool, got most of them.
It does keep them out of the hive.
