Monarda (Monarda didyma (Bergamot))

This is in full flow now and the bees love it (which is bad, as I'm allergic to bee stings big style!! ).

It's not really an issue Sanbaz - I've only been stung by a bee once in my life, although I do still take a few precautions (only drink out of a glass or a cup, shake out clothes and shoes etc). Wasps on the other hand almost seem to be out looking for a fight, but apart from the discomfort of a wasp sting there is no consequence.
