To study some factors that affecting on the honey bee venom collection (bee race, season of the year and supplemental protein nutrition) on collected venom quantity .The results showed that the Italian hybrid gave the largest quantity of venom. Spring and summer are the best seasons for collecting the largest quantity of the bee venom.
