Small Hive Beetle

Aethina tumida

Aethina tumida, the small hive beetle (SHB), primarily lives within the beehive and feeds on pollen, honey, and dead bees. They can cause severe damage to the honeycomb, stored honey, and pollen. If an SHB infestation is abundant and concentrated, it may cause bees to abandon their hive.
