They won't if you wait after sundown, they don't fly in the dark. The
hornet spray kills on contact.

Be sure to get a good spray. There are some cheaper brands on the market
that don't knock them down for 5-10 seconds, and that is plenty of time for
them to nail you. Spectracide Pro will drop them instantly. Spectracide
makes a cheaper spray that takes about five seconds to bring them down. When
you have 100 mad yellow jackets coming at you, that will be the longest five
seconds of your life!
