Toronto, Feb 17 (IBNS): A team of American entomologists were curious to know what is found in an average home and had been entering homes around the world to undertake their study, media reports said.

When the Vettese family offered their Toronto home to the entomologists, a Canadian spider expert from the University of Toronto and a fly expert from the University of Guelph also joined the scientists, CBC reports said.

The entomologists explored every nook and corner of the Vettese family home found 112 different types of species, which is typical for the average home in Canada.
