Some of the popular bee sprays don't kill all the bees. Most kill wasps but
I was told by the guy in Home Depot that some just make bees like yellow
jackets mad. I had wasps here so wasn't worried about which was which. But
depending on what you have around it might be worth a closer look at the
label. Now, if they can only come up with an effective spray for
mother-in-laws. - Mike

I had yellow jackets build a nest in my mast this summer. Found them to be
nearly inactive early in the morning - I know because I watched for them
with my binoculars. I was able to blow the nest out and spray one morning
and didn't have a problem. Took 3 weeks before I quit seeing them hanging
around and dared to work up there. Haven't seen any since.
