Have we caught any bugs yet?

I remember reading the CA test on these over a year ago. They THOUGHT there humi was clean. They were blown away by the beetles they caught in the trap. I talked to the company that makes them in Japan but didn't see the need for 144 min order. I'm surprised that nobody really pushes them. I see a large need that someone could make some $$ and provide a great service. You would think every shop would carry them.
.

We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered.

I agree. Form now on I will always have a trap in my humidors (but not the stink-a-dors)

Definately got mine, and its bug free (only using 1 right now in the vinotemp).

I also see a pretty decent need for these.  I can see how for most people it might also be something so discomforting that there's a mental block, like a parent who gets a call from a teacher about misbehavior and the response is "Not MY kid!".

Has anyone caught any beetles yet? I have been reading as much as I can find on irradiation and freezing am having some "inquiring minds want to know" thoughts.

gassing is another acceptable technique... It's just that... well, I don't like broccoli that much. [doh]
