Bees nesting under my house

They're probably bumble bees (rather plump rounded furry things, often
with a yellow patch), because almost all the wild honey bees have died
out due to a parasitic mite (varroa)...
I seem to have four or five varieties of small bee, in a range of
different colours, shapes and sizes, buzzing round all my flowering
weeds. Could it be that the varroa plague has peaked, leaving survivors?
