A resident was surprised to find an adult black bear in her crawl space. The bear gained entry by forcing open a small door at the rear of the residence. Luckily the crawl space did not connect to the main portion of the home. A BC Conservation Officer attended and was able to encourage the bear to move on by using both bear bangers and bear spray.
