Without you having to do a thing, Convert Forms is already protecting your forms from spam submissions. A honeypot field is automatically added to each form by default. It's designed to catch spammers in the same way an actual pot of honey would catch flies. It's just a hidden field placed into every form and it's purpose is to make form submission fail if anything is entered into it.
