I receive lots of spam from our contact forms and I had to add a "no bots"
field to the forms, where I just ask the users to type a specific number
and validate it. This wastes the time of the users who want to contact us.
Is it possible to prevent bots from submitting forms on the website?

Is it possible to prevent bots from submitting forms on the website? I

would like to add this feature to Django.
