Features and Benefits
Hide Beetle kits feature Insect Limited’s signature pheromone lures that use a blend of 8 different pheromones mixed into a food attractant, to draw-in Hide Beetles over a 3-month period. The lures are paired with the Flat Trap™ which is the recommended, field-tested and best trapping system for these beetles.

Beetles that are attracted to the lure are readily stuck in the glue for monitoring purposes upon entering the trap.
How This Product Can Help You
This Hide Beetle Kit pairs the science of insect biology to the technology of a trapping system to assist you with the task of monitoring for these pests in your environment. In an Integrated Pest Management program, monitoring can ultimately help you reduce pest numbers. When paired with a trapping system, the lures do this by:
Telling you if insects are present
Indicating where they are coming from and
Finally telling you whether the control measures (E.g. removal of infested product, increased sanitation, freezing of infested products, etc), that you have taken are working or not
What to Expect
When you open this kit box, you will find the traps unfolded, and stacked along with a zipper-lock resealable bag containing 10 of the Hide Beetle lures and an Instruction Sheet of
How to place the lure into the trap
Where to place the traps
When to replace the traps.
The traps will need to be folded into place by hand, according to the instructions on the back of the kit box. The glue pad on each trap is covered with release paper that should be removed after the traps have been folded into place.
Each pheromone lure is packaged in a zipper-lock resealable bag to keep them fresh until you are ready to place them into a trap. When you are ready to use this product, the lures should be removed from their package and placed on their sides into the center of the glue pads on each trap.
Although the pheromone in the lures is non-toxic, avoid direct contact with your skin if possible, or simply wash your hands with warm water and soap if contact is made. Pheromone lures are non-pesticidal and only act as an insect attractant. If the glue from the trap accidentally gets onto your hands, it is not toxic and can be easily washed off using soap and warm water.
The traps are then ready to be placed out in areas where beetles are being seen. These traps will begin your monitoring program for Hide Beetles that are attracted to the blend of pheromones and food attractants.
