Flower pollen and bee bread are increasingly utilized in apitherapy, leading to the development of various treatments for numerous ailments. Quality flower pollen is primarily harvested in two ways: as pollen pellets using pollen traps and as bee bread. Collecting pollen pellets with traps requires significant labor during busy periods for beekeepers and necessitates prompt drying to prevent spoilage. Bee bread can be harvested directly from the comb or in its pure form after separating it from wax components. The first method has notable drawbacks, including strict storage conditions and the need for protection against wax moths.
