jimmy81 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I found this little bugger lurking in my kitchen, so I place it in a plastic bag to take some picture of it. Yes it can fly, when you touch it, it play death. Can someone tell me is this so called the tobacco beetles or not.? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptrthgr8 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I'm no expert, but the one you show above seems different than the images I found when doing a quick web search. Here's some info that can help identify the little bugger: http://entomology.ifas.ufl.edu/creatures/urban/stored/cigarette_beetle.htm Again... I'm no expert. But I would definitely check your humidor if there's any concern about where this one came from. ~ Greg ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PartagasIV Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 If it was just "lurking in your kitchen" it's highly doubtful it's a tobacco beetle. They are not like cockroaches. They'd be in a cigar box or not at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
