Do bees like to burrow?

Answer by  BrendaG (6111)

Yellowjackets, adrenid bees, ground hornets, plasterer bees, and miner(digger) bees burrow, among others.. as do ground nesting wasps, including cicada killers and scoliid or tiphiid wasps. Males hover over holes in lawn waiting for the females to come out. These kinds of ground bees are not as aggressive.

This is dependent upon the species. Some make build hives in trees or buildings but others burrow in the ground and some will burrow into wood.
