Meet Chuckie the Tobacco Beetle!

Thanks Andrew for sharing, nice larve. :) How did Chuckie taste?

While we are on the subject, here are some more images of the nasty little boogers that I stumbled across, including a video.

 
Chuckie, that little bitch had a mouth on him. Good work putting him in his place! Also glad to hear that you don't have a bigger problem!
 
Chuckie looks like the larvae and not the actual beetle. Wormy little bastige.
 
Very good pictures moki. Hopefully I'll never encounter the likes of Chuckie :whistling:
 
:0 If he ever ask's about me tell him I moved. :whistling:
Thank GOD I have never had to deal with those buggers. :p

Yep, says so on the first page... the little sucker can't run as fast as I can puff! :)

Never actually saw the wormy side of those things, only the holes and the full grwon beetles once a long time ago, up close and in person. :)

They do their damage chomping through your cigars in the larva stage; the beetle stage of life exists to lay eggs and spread their nastiness.
 
I always figured they would be a lot smaller then that, I imagined tick sized. glad you got em moki.
