Crap crap crap. That's bad news for Ecuadorean banana prices too - customs normally assumes that pests in Colombian crops are also present in Ecuadorean ones, even if there's no good evidence of that.

Notwithstanding which, it's a beetle that's not found in our territory - it's primarily Central American in distribution.
