Actually, there are certain species that secrete some sort of "milk" over their eggs as a method of feeding. Tsetse flies and Diploptera genus of cockroaches do this. Twisted-wing parasites and gall midges feed on their mother's blood, though that isn't really milk. No firefly does it as far as I know, though, and even if they did, the glands are modified versions of accessory glands normally used to form the egg, so it would be within the body.

Many leaf-sucking insects as well as caterpillars have a sweet, sugary poop well liked by ants, but that comes from the anus. Cockroaches also have a gland on their backs that secretes pheromones, which the female licks during intercourse, but males possess that one.
