Re: insects in British Columbia
someone asked this in the last couple of weeks and I saved the link.
If you go on here and select where you want to know about and scroll down you should be able to find a "bug alert" for that area.
Good Luck

BTW - love the name - should have chosen that one myself

Re: insects in British Columbia
No poisonous snakes on Vancouver Island (you only get rattlers in the interior of BC, where its much hotter and dryer).
There are some poisonous spiders but they're very rare.
