The harvesters enter the forest individually or in groups of 5 to 25 people. The average duration of searching gaharu takes one to five weeks. Trees infected by microorganisme that form gaharu will be harvested according to the form or shape of word fibres and zise/extend infected parts of the tree. The way people harvest gaharu in natural forest are in the form at scrabbing, chopping, pulling out or even cut the tree. Scrabbing is performed when the infestion intensity in intermediate (wood fibre is yellow or light brown in color).
