But first discover your
inner bug – mostly A’s
Fire ant:
• You are a social bug with tons of
girlfriends. Fun loving, but at times a little
irresponsible and you can be a pain to be
around. The party is always at your place
and your burning wit and collective
intelligence makes you the life of the party.
You rely on your colony for your strength
and as part of the team you are invincible.
But first discover your
inner bug – mostly B’s
Swallowtail butterfly:
• You are noble, calm and sweet natured
with lots of admirers. You have a general
love of nature and anything that keeps you
in tune with the environment. You are
decisive and practical and your
charismatic nature shines through. People
naturally look to you for guidance
and you could easily become the
leader of a strange cult.
But first discover your
inner bug – mostly C’s
Paper wasp:
• Intellectual and thorough, you love
puzzles. You have a small number of
friends but they are loyal and deep
thinkers too. You like order and enjoy
learning, you are a category nine nerd.
You have watched every single episode of
the walking dead and are now watching
the black and white series to check for
inconsistencies.
But first discover your
inner bug – mostly D’s
Bed bug:
• You have lots of friends and are truly fun
loving, full of hugs and fancy free. You
have a real flare for fashion and have the
confidence to show it off. You love to be
opinionated, but don’t always like to take
time to do the research and know what
you are talking about. You are
well intentioned, but can be a
blood-sucking parasite.
But first discover your
inner bug – mostly E’s
Honey bee:
• You are smart with a ferocious
exterior but soft inside. This makes you
protective and altruistic, not that you’d
admit it. You are closely connected to your
family and close friends and you are a
good communicator. Your mischievous but
hard working nature makes you a
fascinating person. People can’t help liking
you, despite fearing you quite significantly.

What are the two awareness/education activities
most people begin with, that lead to an
implementation program?
1) Education op
2) Site audit
Wholesale Approach

roles within the school community
• In-class materials for educators to tailor and use
• On-line materials for self-guided study
• Certification/certificate result
• Wholesale approach requires strategic retail
investments (pilot programs)
