When you freeze the cigars make sure you get them down to below zero fahrenheit for at least three full days. Let them thaw in the 'fridge for three or four more days. Let them gently come back to room temp before you fire one up.

I've read some advice that the infected humidor should be frozen too. I did it when one of mine was infected. I don't know if it does anything, but it gave me some piece of mind at least. Good Luck!
