Do commercial beekeepers use smokers or Bee-Go when they harvest honey?

I worked 50 hives with Bee-Go. Citrus and palmetto were intense in Central Florida. We did not have time to mess around.

Don't have time for bee-go. I pull 1-3 ton a day and I use a bee blower.

We use Beego and leaf blower.

it might depend on the number of hives you are working. for just a few hives a blower might work well. but for a larger number of hives, bee-go is awesome. there are many days we bring in 30+ tons of honey. if we had to use blowers we wouldn't be able to do as much

If you are not using an excluder bee go is the only way to go. Blowers are fast but if you are not using an exluder you are in trouble. Some queens will be lost.
