When bees are living in the wild, they always build the cells in their nest in a hexagonal shape. When beekeepers keep bees in a hive, they provide the bees with sheets of wax foundation with the hexagonal shapes imprinted on the wax. This encourages the bees to build their hexagonal cells in the location that the beekeeper wants.
It's not the hives that are hexagonal, it's the wax cells that the bees construct within the hive and the shape makes for greater strength and efficient use of space.
they can
they let bees build hives in them
Honey bees.
honey bees. i looked it up

Not usually. However the comb cells built by the bees is hexagon shaped.
A cell where honey is stored is called a honeycomb cell. Bees store honey in these wax cells within their hives. Honeycomb cells are hexagonal in shape and are perfectly designed to store and protect the honey.
Hornets build nests (or hives) similar to bees.
How to Kill Sand Bees. Sand bees or ground bees burrow down into the soil to build their hives.
Bees make hexagonal honeycomb cells because it is the most efficient shape for storing the most honey using the least amount of wax. The hexagonal shape allows for cells to be tightly packed together, maximizing storage capacity while minimizing material usage. Additionally, the angles of the hexagon provide structural stability to the honeycomb.
uhm in hives which they cleverly build themselves
