    I just opened my humidor and noticed my Ashton VSG had a hole in it, immediately pulled all of my other cigars out and inspected which all looks fine with the exception of the 1 Ashton. Now my humidor is empty and I found 1 beetle hanging out a corner. I got rid of it and wiped down my humidor with a damp towel.

     

    Should I still put all of my other smokes in the freezer?

     

    Thanks for any help

    I would keep however many smokes you're going to light up in the next month in a plasic bag or tupperware and the rest in the freezer for a couple days.  The Freezer will dry them out and you'll have to rehumidify them.  This will take a while, about a month.  Meanwhile, smoke the sticks you set aside, that way if the beattles are a problem you can still salvage most of your smokes.  Also be sure to keep your sticks at a temp lower than 70 F, since that, and above, is the temp that beatles like to hatch at.
