Have you tried peppermint oil to combat the beatles?

[@simplytopbarbeekeeping2107]

Yes I have. I do believe it may help deter them a bit. But if you watch episode number 77 layens hive slimed, The peppermint oil did not keep the beetles out when I had comb collapse from the hot weather. Too many places for them to hide and take over the hive. Best thing has been strong hive with not too much open space that the bees can’t patrol.
