Japanese beetle regulated areas in British Columbia

To prevent the spread of Japanese beetle in British Columbia, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has established regulated areas where the beetles have been detected. A movement certificate is required for:

• The movement of plants with soil attached out of a Japanese beetle regulated area is restricted year-round.
• The movement of soil out of a Japanese beetle regulated area is restricted year-round.
• The movement of plants and plant parts with no soil attached (above-ground plant parts) out of a Japanese beetle regulated area is restricted between June 15 and October 15, to coincide with the emergence of maturing beetles from turf, and adult Japanese beetle flying season.
