Soak the area wher they are burrowing with a one ounce per gallon of water solution of malathion, which can be found at the home and garden stores. This mixture is not toxic enough to hurt a child or pet and will degrade from weather and UV sunlight in a short while, so as to not persist in the environment...don't allow this to drift into your koi pond, however, because it will kill aquatic life before it degrades.

'Sweat bee' is a colloquial name for bees of the order Halictidae, but the habit of trying to get salt by drinking human perspiration is not restricted to bees of this order. See the related links for more information.
To repel sweat bees, consider using insect repellents approved for outdoor use containing DEET or picaridin. Additionally, wearing long sleeves, pants, and light-colored clothing can help deter sweat bees. Avoid using scented lotions or perfumes, as they can attract these bees.
Predators of sweat bees include birds, insects such as robber flies and dragonflies, spiders, and sometimes other bee species. These predators hunt sweat bees for food, either by ambushing them or actively pursuing them.
