 They are a new type of beetle traps, only what they say, but I have though of giving the 1 gal a try to see if they really works. Maybe someone here got a sample to try, know I didn't.

I wouldn't pay the price for the recipe. You already have plenty of pails likely around the house. That's all that it appears is for sale.

 Know what you mean Garden Hive, I already have a good way of getting reed of the beetles with my oil pans under the hive, just have to remember to change the oil out every once in a while.
