WTF: I found a tobacco beetle running across my floor

If your boxes are closed and there is no internal indication, then they are probably fine. If you have the room, put all your singles in 5-finger bags on end so that the top is open and pointed upwards. Open helps keep the humidity exchange going. Check them every few days. Also, in 5-ers, you should be able to find room to do the freezer technique.

Make sure that you pulled everything from the cooler and cleaned the container.

Most of my cigars are in ziplock bags. I pulled my cigars and checked them all twice last night. Will do again this morning. I only found one of the buggers running across my floor last night. And yes I am sure its a tobacco beetle. I checked it against pictures.
