The yellow jackets often seem to find a home under the covers of the air conditioners. Just a week ago my son had a blower wheel fail and when removing the A/C cover he discovered three active nests.

Go after them after dark with a flashlight and the spray. They're inactive, not mobile, and you can liquidate them easily. I discovered a hive in my water valve junction box in mid-June at my home. I approached at night and dumped pure bleach in there, and covered the lid hole with a brick overnight. Bye-bye bees/wasps. Had a huge honeycomb working in there I cleaned up in the daytime.
