Description
The Lasioderma genus, commonly residing in stored tobacco and dried plant products, has showcased remarkable adaptations for survival. Contrary to popular belief, these tiny beetles can't chew through plastic or metal but infiltrate pre-existing damages in packaging. Their presence underscores a broader ecological role, as their larvae help decompose organic matter, although they're often unwelcome in warehouses and pantries due to their destructive feeding habits that impact stored goods.
