This came in a sampler pack from cigars international. None of the other cigars have it and it is the only hole on the smoke.
Is this a beetle hole?

Just looks like a regular hole to me. Beetle holes I've seen are usually bigger and more round.
If you tap it foot down on some white paper, do any small black specks fall out (beetle shit)?
If not, I'd still smoke it.

No bugs running down my throat but the wrapper split abot 2/3 of the way down. It was about 3/4 long crack. Does that mean anything? It got longer the closer the ash got to it.

The hole is probably a wrapper defect, splitting can be a sign of humidity imbalance.......

I have been having trouble controlling humidity. I just got the heartfelt beads tuesday and it's getting a little better.

If its really dry outside, that could lead to splitting regardless of your humi setup.

It's about 1/3 full. It's a fairly big tupperware container. My humidity has been stable at 67%. Humidity outside has been up and down with the rain we have received the last couple of weeks.
Using the beads should keep your cigars stable, even if they take up only 1/3 of the container. But give them a couple of weeks for the stable humidity to reach throughout your cigars, right now only the wrapper and foot of your cigar are at 67%.
