What Is This???

Quarantine it with any other cigars in that tupper....be safe and keep an eye out. That hole is pretty big for a beetle...they aren't usually that large but maybe you got yourself some kind of anomaly as tobacco dust is a red flag. I tend to always keep a few tuppers around for quarantine when I get new cigars....30 day minimum before moving them to GenPop. Keeping a steady 65%/70 degree environment is key....too many changes in environment tends to greenlight those pesky basturds into making their escape.

I might just start freezing newcomers. But the idea of keeping them separate for a while is a good idea too. I’m just glad I saw this. I’m finally getting a bit of a collection and would probably cry like a big baby if they were all destroyed!

Later today I’ll place them in the fridge.
