Eleanor's word for ant, bee, dragonfly, spider, cricket, mosquito, and firefly
is "BUGGY! BUGGY!" It always gets caps and an exclamation point. This particular friend -- an ant -- was thrilling enough to merit the abandonment of fresh raspberries.
As a footnote, it turns out that bug bites are also referred to as "BUGGY!" - usually followed by "owie!" and endless pointing at and messing with said welt.
