I've been lurking these forums for a while now. I've never really had a reason to post, but recent events have caused me come out of the digital shadows and get some advice...
Not even an hour has passed since I saw what looked like a tobacco beetle walking along my computer desk. I was unsure what it was at first, so I put a bottle cap over it while I could find some pictures of tobacco beetles on the internet(seeing as how I've never seen one in real life before).
Well, after half-an-hour of straining my eyes trying to compare what I saw on the internet to what was strolling across my desk, I decided to play it safe and check my humi. I looked over every cigar I had in there twice(I did this all in a different room, and made sure my cigars hadn't picked up any hitch-hikers). And I couldnt find the trace of anything in my humi.
So, I'm wondering if I should go through the whole 'put the cigars in a baggy in the freezer' ordeal, of if it was normal to have some beetles wandering around(I do have various blends of pipe tobacco around the house)?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all in advance.
