Like the drugstore beetle the tobacco beetle (Lasioderna Serricorne) is also related to the furniture beetle. Adult cigarette beetles are yellowish- to reddish-brown, oval-shaped, and about 1/10-inch long. The head is bent downward sharply, nearly at right angles to the body, giving a humpbacked appearance when viewed from the side. The wing covers (elytra) are smooth, and the antennal segments are uniform and saw-like (serrate). Looking at the pictures below will aid identification

Thanks for all the beetle info Slim. I hope that I never have the displeasure of seeing one alive.

I too hope I never have to deal with this creature of havick.

Hey Slim, but how do they taste?

... like chicken ... 😉

no really has you smoked a gar with them's little bassterd's inside. and can you taste them if so I got your answer already thanks again.

- can't taste 'em myself ... I've had a 'few' and at worse, you get a little crackle - but that's all ... besides, with a glass of good scotch - you can tolerate just about any other taste out there ... (almost) ...
