Scientists have recently discovered a new kind of wasp species known as the “samurai wasp” in Chilliwack, Fraser Valley. As this kind of bug is native to Asia, this was the first time it was ever spotted in Canada, and scientists have already started learning more about the wasp and how it came to be in Canada. Since the wasp appears to have naturally arrived from Asia to Canada, scientists believe that more may come and the species will spread across the country. From the looks of it, it appears that the invasive bug species will likely make the country its home. As spring is upon us, residents should be prepared to face all kinds of pests, bugs, and insects. However, this time, it appears there is a newcomer. If you and your family are facing problems with pests, bugs, insects, and rodents, make sure you have the problem handled by professional pest exterminators.

Since rats and mice need nothing more than a tiny hole the size of a dime to get inside, it’s important for residents to be cautious.
