how long would it take the "average" infestation to do that much damage? Makes me wonder if anyone has a standard practice of inspecting all of their stuff on a periodic basis.

Define average.

I would say 10 beetles could do that much damage in a matter of 2 months. Less time if the temp is high.

See, I have no idea of what an average outbreak is, whether it's a single beetle, dozens, or what. That's why I'm curious just what a single beetle might be capable of doing alone, so you might put some sort of periodic inspection on the table.

When I saw the top of the Padron lid while scrolling down at first I was like "Oh god no not again." and that damn pic made it into the thread anyway now giving me the chills. I hate the image. Makes me paranoid for at least 2 weeks after viewing it.

Thanks to all for the condolences.

I thought as the day went on, I would get over it.
Actually, I did and then I came on to this thread again and man, I am down and out again.
I need to get off the laptop and go convince the wife that "I NEED" a box of Padron Annis or go on heavy dosages of Prozac.

Knowing my wife, I hope I don't sleep all day from those heavy dosages.

All good things must come to an end, my friend! Happily, the happy days CAN be rekindled.

Not me. Luckily, I've been beetle free. I was replying to poker's picture.
