64 degrees now, according to the latest article I could find: http://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/...41_87/_article

Tobacco beetle eggs and pupae are in/on a lot of tobacco. Most manufacturers fumigate their tobacco constantly and/or freeze the cigars prior to purchase by consumers.

Some people take the extra step of freezing all cigars that they buy. I'll freeze custom rolls and any boxes of cigars brought back from Cuba. It is a PITA, but beetles are worse ...
