tmos Posted May 24, 2005 Posted May 24, 2005 First time I've had a Habanos hatch, but probably not the last if I don't remember to keep my humi in a cool place. I opened my pc/tpc humi to fill my otter box since I emptied her out pretty good while fishing last weekend and I notice a little beetle crawling on the edge. And this humi is jam packed. So, I popped a cold one and started at it. About halfway down I see a little MC5 with two nice little holes in it. I killed the beetle crawling on the humi, but where did the other one go? Well, I have a full box of MC5's in the freezer for a couple days, although since it appears to be a small outbreak and isolated to one stick I would probably be better off isolating the box and storing my habanos in a cooler place, instead of in the overhead compartment at my office, directly above the flourescent light (kind of like a chicken incubator). Better yet, El Presidente, do you have any tiny tubes?:-D
El Presidente Posted May 24, 2005 Posted May 24, 2005 tmos Put all your cigars in zip lock bags and then in the freezer for a week. The tiny holes are the exit points. I am sure those fat little suckers have laid eggs in others entering via the foot. By the time you see them big and fat on the lid of the humidor, they are on their last legs ie..... at the end of their life cycle. Freeze the Fockers.

I put the box of MC5's in the freezer. I guess I should bag up everything in the humi and freeze it to be safe. Thanks for the advise.
