I'm assuming this is out of fear for beetles. As most domestic distributors already freeze their cigars before they ship them, in order to kill the eggs, I think you are correct - you are paranoid. But hey - if it makes you feel secure, I see no harm. Just

As for the - uh, non-domestic ones, well . . . .

Thanks for the input. I guess I will throw them in the fridge.

They do but it doesn't always prevent beetles from hatching as evidenced from many threads here. And yes, Habanos SA started freezing a few years ago.

FWIW, humidors are not meant to be totally air-tight. The good ones do allow for minimum air exchange.

Or should I take out my cigars and put them in zip lock baggies then in the fridge.

I should have added, I don't think you will have a problem for a few days.
