Beetle dung?

[heavyd]

I saw little Black specks inside the cello of a cigar I just received. On closer inspection under a digital microscope, it looks a lot like beetle debris. Good thing I didn't just toss these cigars into the Mini with everything else :D

Can someone confirm that this stuff is indeed...beetle crap?

[BC-Axeman]

Cool! You have a digital microscope. Sure looks like excrement, doesn't it?

When you put it on white paper and it looks like finely ground black pepper, yup beetle crap.:2

[heavyd]

Here's a shot of the foot...

The wrapper is still intact, no holes...I'm gonna smoke it!:banger

[BC-Axeman]

Sure, smoke it. All the turds were outside the cigar.

Well, I smoked it and it was a great cigar, but a little noisy :)

I would say Cigar smoker 1
Beetles 0.
One must persevere over obstacles.

Wasn't there a movie called Beetle Dung a few years back?:ss

[ade06]

puff, puff, poop!

[TanithT]

Mmmm, roll it up and smoke it and see if it tastes like the cigar tobacco the beetles ate. :ss

While I've never bothered to look at tobacco beetle larve crap under a microscope, OS's description of what it looks like to the naked eye is pretty much right on from my experience.

Will leaving my cigars in the the cello stop the spread of beetles ?
