In the first six months, harvesting is done every three months, while checking for pests like ants, termites, and rodents at least once a week. You should harvest when it is rainy because bees do not have enough time to look for food, which makes hot/ warm seasons the best times. The night is also the best time to harvest because during the day they are active and most worker bees are away and they will come back and attack. The most important thing is to spray them with smoke to make them lazier, enabling the farmer to harvest. The farmer can also use a clearer board, placed the night before harvesting so that the bees move to the bottom brood and are not trouble during the process.

There are also plants with good honey and to target the plant you have to target a specific time. The night is also the best time to harvest because during the day they are active and most worker bees are away and they will come back and attack.
