whitespotted sawyer beetle

5688  Hi, this bit me! Should I be concerned?  Please identify. I’m in Port Coquitlam BC and it was in my kitchen. (Door is open as very hot).

Thanks, Sandy

5688  This is a long-horned wood-boring beetle (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in the genus Monochamus; likely M. scutellatus, known as the whitespotted sawyer, As a wood-borer, it has very strong jaws, but there is no danger from its bite – see http://tinyurl.com/hxozfrufor more detailed information on this species.
