I believe that is a cigarette beetle.

Subject: [pestlist] Drugstore beetle?

I think I found a drugstore beetle, but am not positive.

I tried to get a better focus on the antennae; my phone's camera really didn't 
want to.  Can anyone confirm that this is a drugstore beetle?  It was about 2 
mm long.  What was really odd is that it was in a cool storage area that is 
kept at 50 degrees, with no good food sources for them, just cardboard boxes 
and nitrate film.

Thanks,

Alan
