Default Re: Beetle Outbreak!

Do any of your cigars have holes? Did you actually see any beetles?

As for your humidor. Put it in the fridge for 24-48 hours, then the freezer for few days, back in the fridge for 24 hours and then let it come to temperature. Put your hydration element back on and go back to normal. I would not rush seasoning it and let the cigar humidify at a natural pace.

I say put the humidor in the fridge then freeze as some say right in the freezer could damage it. I had a 100% veneered humidor that went right into freeze with no issues. I would more concerned whether you actually have beetles if you do not see holes or beetles.
