Beetles.... no not the band

BlkDrew · 03-18-2016, 08:08 AM

So I was checking up on my cigars and also to pull a couple for the night, and found some beetles in a bag that housed cigars from Key West. My mother in law had gotten the cigars for me when they were on a trip a couple months back. It is a good thing i kept the bag sealed and they didn't get out. First time for beetles.

Yikes, I have some Key West cigars I haven't peeked at in forever. I know what I'm doing this evening.

That sucks! Very good luck about the plastic bag tho.

Whoa! This is why I will always isolate new smokes from my stash, for at least a couple of days....be it by themselves in the bag they came in or in the freezer.....no matter where I got them.....paranoid? I guess so.

Very sorry this happened, but glad you were smart enough to keep it in the bag and the rest of your stash is ok.

Btw is an actual Beetle there caught on film I spy?

Never liked them. Been freezing cigars for years now due to that very same situation. Since then, no problems.
