The Honey Harvesting Suit is a full-body sting protection garment used by beekeepers in Kenya during honey harvesting operations. Honey harvesting is the activity during which bee colonies are at their most defensive — a large number of honey frames are being removed, the hive is open for an extended period, and alarm pheromones build up over time. The Honey Harvesting Suit provides the full-body coverage and secure closures needed to work confidently through a full harvest session.What Is the Honey Harvesting Suit?The Honey Harvesting Suit is a full-body PPE garment used specifically at the honey harvesting stage of beekeeping. The integrated veil protects the face and neck — the primary targets of defensive African honey bees during disruption. For comparison with other suit styles, see the Round Veil Bee Suit, Cotton Bee Suit, and Cotton Fabric Bee Suit. Pair with Leather Beekeeping Gloves.What Is the Price of the Honey Harvesting Suit in Kenya?The Honey Harvesting Suit is priced at KSh 3,500 at Urban Beekeepers in Nairobi. In stock — no lead time.

Inspect the suit before use. Check the veil mesh for holes and all zips for smooth operation. Replace if any seal is compromised.Put on fully before approaching. Dress completely before walking towards the apiary. Smoke the hive entrance before opening.Work steadily. During harvesting, move calmly and deliberately. Rapid movements increase bee agitation. Keep the smoker active throughout the harvest session.Secure glove-to-suit overlap. Wear Leather Beekeeping Gloves overlapping the suit sleeve by at least 10 cm. Recheck this seal throughout the harvest as movement can shift the overlap.Wash after harvest. Wash the suit after each harvest day. Bee venom, propolis, and honey build up during a long harvest and must be removed before the next use.Care and MaintenanceProper care extends the working life of your Honey Harvesting Suit and keeps it performing effectively season after season.Wash the Honey Harvesting Suit immediately after each harvest day. During harvesting, the suit accumulates more bee venom, propolis, and honey than during regular inspections. Washing promptly prevents permanent staining and pheromone buildup.Inspect the veil and all closures after every wash. Harvest sessions put seams under more stress than routine inspections. Repair any loose seams or damaged closures before the next use.Air dry in the shade. Store clean and dry in a sealed bag away from hive equipment.Why Buy From Urban Beekeepers?Kenya’s best beekeeping equipment shop — stocking high-quality and genuine beekeeping equipmentIn stock — same-day delivery within NairobiNationwide delivery to all major towns across KenyaCall or WhatsApp: 0797 764 747Trusted by commercial farmers, CBOs, and NGOs across KenyaUrban Beekeepers accepts M-Pesa, card, cash and bank transfer paymentsShipping and DeliveryUrban Beekeepers delivers countrywide to Mombasa, Kisumu, Nakuru, Eldoret, Machakos, Kitengela, Kitui, and all major towns across Kenya.
