After the wiping, if you are really paranoid ... microwave them for 8-10 seconds each.

Re: AHH!!! MOLD!!! What do I do?
I was told by someone recently that after wiping them off to put them onto a sealed mason Jar and place it into a pot of water. Bring it to a boil for x amount of time to kill the spores.
Maybe he will come on here and give the full directions. |

Can't tell cause the picture is too fuzzy but that might be bloom. If it is slightly greenish blue then yeah it is mold but if it is white/gray/putty colored then it is bloom.

That might cause the sticks to swell and burst open. At the very least it will harm the flavor.

Re: AHH!!! MOLD!!! What do I do?
Mold can be white as well. Plume/bloom is more uniform and does not appear at just one end of a cigar. It will look like a fine dust from head to foot. Mold cannot live at a rh of 65 or lower. That is the best solution to preventing it, imo.

Indeed, the beads, the beads you need.
One plus, the mold appears to be mostly on the head, and easily clipped.
