ABOUT US

Apitura® Innovation is a UK-based company focused on ecological monitoring and the responsible management of invasive species, with a strong commitment to sustainable beekeeping. 


Founded by experienced beekeepers and environmental specialists, we combine hands-on field expertise with scientific insight to tackle some of the most urgent challenges facing apiculture today.

Our mission is simple but vital: to protect pollinators, support resilient ecosystems, and provide those on the frontline with practical, effective tools to manage the growing threat of invasive species, particularly the Yellow-legged Asian hornet (Vespa velutina).

At the heart of Apitura’s offering is a carefully developed suite of complementary products: the TRAP-X® Yellow-legged Asian hornet trap, the Bait Pod™ bycatch friendly insect lure container, and VespaLure® wasp and Yellow-legged Asian hornet lure. Each product is built on rigorous research and proven through extensive real-world testing, including critical fieldwork in Jersey, one of the regions hardest hit by Asian hornet activity.

What sets Apitura® apart is our commitment to bridging science and practice. Every product we develop is grounded in real-world application. Tested, refined, and trusted by beekeepers, conservationists, and land managers. We understand the challenges our customers face because we’ve faced them ourselves.

As invasive species continue to evolve and spread, so do we. Apitura® is committed to leading with innovation that is effective, responsible, and forward-thinking, helping protect biodiversity while giving our customers confidence that they are using some of the most advanced and environmentally conscious solutions available.
