Just use raid

I personally would never spray any chemical in my humidor as the wood would soak it up could release it later on.

Sorry for the loss bro. That's why I freeze everything
.

We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered.

I tend to take the fogger approach. Doesnt seem to bother the cigars much. I have been going to the doctor a lot lately though with mysterious symptoms.

Scott, you know the drill. Inspect every cigar in your humidor daily for a while. Toss out any badly infected cigars. Suspect cigars and those that were near the problematic cigars should be frozen. Inspect the bottom of your humidor daily for beetle sign (droppings and bits of tobacco. I find placing a large white piece or paper or oak tag on the bottom makes this easier).
Never, ever EVER spray any insecticide on your cigars, near your cigars, in your humidor! Ever! That's just not good advice and not needed.
The fact that you had a beetle trap in there probably saved you.
And remember you did not have the problem because your temp got high, you had the problem because you had dormant eggs in your cigars.

Skip shouldn't he buy a new house too since the beetle's have now escaped the cigars and will more than likely start eating all his furniture?




Sorry couldn't resist
