Beetle dung?
 
2 Attachment(s)
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?

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

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

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 ?
