Why do bees keep visiting an empty outdoor air-conditioner unit?

Our answer

Observe the unit from a distance. Repeated entry into a vent or enclosure could indicate nesting, whereas brief visits to the surface could be moisture or warmth. Do not spray or open the unit. Have a beekeeper and an HVAC technician coordinate if bees appear to be entering it.
