Amsterdam - Dutch customs officers found 100 dead beetles stuffed with cocaine while examining a parcel from Peru.

The little drug couriers' bodies had been slit open and filled with a total of 300 grams of cocaine, with an estimated street-value of 8,000 euros ($11,270).

"This is a very striking method of smuggling. We have never seen anything like this before," said government spokesman Kees Nanninga.

Officers decided to open the parcel after scanning it and seeing what appeared to be insects inside.

Oh dear god... what are they going to use next?... about the ONLY good thing you can say about drug dealers is that they are imaginative... if only they could put that to a much better use...

Sounds like a lot of work for such a small amount! Mabey it was just a trial run to see if customs would notice before they did it with more?
