Freezing Tubos?

I do freeze religiously. It just seems kind of pointless in the case of tubos. I worry more about the spread of the buggers than losing one cigar. My most prized cigars are not in tubos.

I have never heard of an insect chewing through metal before. I am inclined to think its not possible. I'd be curious if there is evidence to the contrary.

I'd be curious to see evidence of this as well. Seems highly unlikely.

I believe this is what Jared may be referring to: http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/showpo...4&postcount=58

Hardly convincing evidence and Wayner admits that in the post. If you're nervous about freezing the tubos, you can always pull the cigar out and freeze the cigars without the tubos.

What if the beetle is in the tube? I'm no expert, but I would think freezing the whole thing would be the best protection.

I store my tubos in the humi with the caps off so I freeze EVERYTHING.

Looool... look at all that beetle poo...

I'm surprised that beetle didn't evolve into a Pikachu with all that food.

Not sure about you but I am clumsy as heck! I freeze everything, that way when the day comes and I open the one tubo that was infested with beetles and I with my luck just so happen to drop it in with the rest of the other sticks contaminating them as well. it's not gonna hurt it by freezing it.
