I have seen no evidence of this, please cite a source. Cello is a natural plant byproduct and like paper or tobacco can be consumed by Lasioderma serricorne, the tobacco beetle. Books and other paper products are also susceptible, but I never seen any reference to beetles eating any petroleum based products.
Of course there are those beetles with armor teeth who can chew through aluminum tubos, but that is another subject.

I don't have a source. No pictures and no documented case studies... I though cello was petroleum based... This still doesn't mean they won't chew through a zip lock...
