Or maybe someone has some suggestions on possible ways to lower the internal temp of my humidor, i just tried moving it against an external wall of the apartment, well see how that goes.
Thanks for any and all answers, I've really enjoyed reading the plethora of different threads here.

This is correct for beetles and eggs and larvae but temperature isn't just a beetle issue. Having your sticks at 65% humidity and allowing temps to rise can cause mold issues ............... mold prefers warmer temperatures so as your temps rises your suceptability to mold also rises.
