Cavity Nesting Bees
Cavity nesting bees don’t excavate nests of their own. These species, such as masked bees, masons, leafcutters and carders, use existing cavities. This may be hollow plant stems or beetle borings in dead wood. Some species of mason bees may even use empty snail shells, dividing them into compartments with walls of mud or chewed leaves.
