Hey Bal...first, like Unklebill, let me offer my condolence for your loss. Now, 1st answer...tobacco beetles. Yours sticks became warm enough for the eggs to hatch and the little critters chewed their way out, ruining some good sticks. #2...When puschasing large numbers of cigars, I usually place them in a zip lock bag, put the bag into a tupperware container and the container into the freezer for three to five days to destroy the beetles and their eggs. Next, take the container out of freezer and put it in the fridge for two days to begin the thawing process. Take container out and let it sit at room temperature for one day. At this time, put the cigars into your humidor. #3...Unfortunely, it sounds as if all of your cigars have been affected. Examine each cigar for small holes. But before you throw your sticks out, wait to read other messages here. There are those of us who maybe able to give you ideas on repairing the least damaged 'gars.
