Honey is an acidic, viscous liquid that is corrosive to metals. You must not use metal containers when storing honey, so as not to react with the honey and contaminate the honey. It is better to use food plastic bucket or glass bottle storage.
Additionally, it is important to keep it sealed, honey is very absorbent, if you do not pay attention to the long-term exposure of honey in the air with high humidity, the honey will absorb the moisture in the air. Once the moisture exceeds 21%, it will create good conditions for yeast to survive and thus fermentation and spoilage will occur. So make sure to keep it sealed to avoid prolonged contact with the air, and don't use a water-soaked spoon when you take the honey.
The last thing is that honey is also strong in absorbing odors, so don't put it together with volatile odors, so as not to make it inedible after the string of odors. It is best to keep honey in a ventilated, cool place without direct sunlight. If you can't find such a place in the hot summer, you can also put it in the refrigerator for better freshness.
