What Is This???

Just tapped on it and saw a little bit of tobacco dust fall out. The hole certainly digs into the filler leaves. Beetle?

Most of the cigars I’ve had for months or longer. And the new additions either came from a cigar bar or the grocery store. How long does it take for this to show itself, assuming this is a beetle?

Been a while since I last researched it but I used to be super paranoid about it and froze everything but I have not been as good about that as I used to be. From what I vaguely remember is the dormancy period for eggs is quite long but they only hatch when temperatures rise to a sufficient level I believe in the 80's. If I found one I would freeze 3verything and try to inspect all my sticks this is easier for some than others. Also what humification do you use because I believe once they exit the go for that. But again been a while since I worried about that.
