    They're selling the spray....Not saying they don't know what they're talking about, but you know...

    If you're going to use a "quarantine" cooler, you could isolate the outbreak, and freeze. Or spray if you want to go that route.

    I've gathered that freezing works. I hope I never have to find out for sure.

    Yeah, I had read another article that said that you have to freeze at least at 0, which most freezers easily do. It's just that an outbreak of the little buggers would be devestating in a humidor. I'm understanding that they can hatch at temps above 73. In my situation that's going to be difficult to maintain during the summer months. These 99 degree days are pushing the humi temps up above 75. I'm going to treat the cracks and crevices with a residual pyrethrin a couple weeks before stocking. The little pheramone traps look pretty cool or might they just attract more of the flying beetles than what are already there?
