Louisiana.  They lick the sweat off your arms, but don't seem to sting.

Subject: [BEE-L] Newly identified bee like human sweat

In “Urban Buzz: A New Bee That Sips Sweat” (Wall Street Journal, April
28, 2012), Robert Lee Hotz reports, “Native Insects Getting Closer
Look; Humans as ‘Salt Lick’” It’s a long overlooked native bee,
ignored like all of them in favour of imported species that produce
