Need less to say the these are not good conditions for my prized collection. I am terrified of the feared tobacco bettle ravaging my collection.

Onto the questions....

1) Most of my cigars have been in my humi for some time. Most of the time you hear of people freezing them immediately upon receiving them. Is it okay to freeze these cigars even though they have been in my humi for a period of time.

2) Should I double bag the cigars or are they fine in a single bag in the freezer?

3) Should I freeze both CC's and NCs, or are the NC's not necessary?

4) How long should I freeze them to make sure they are tobacco free?

Any other advice for me that doesn't involve the word "vino"?

Thanks in advance Gents

Oh yeah...if anyone references anything about the search function I will monkey stomp your head
No search needed I did it for you

I freeze em all, from vintage to current production if they are in my house they have been frozen.

I found a beetle hole in a stick that was in a ziploc in my singles box and didn't take any chances refroze all 200 singles, some of which I have had for over a year and have been frozen once before.

If you follow the rules in the link you don't need a vino all your beetle, eggs, larvae, pupai, or adults will be dead little critters.
