Ok guys, My house is being fumigated for termites this weekend. I will be out of town, and will have some of my smokes with me, but I can't bring the entire fridge-a-dor. So what do I do with the rest of my smokes? I think I know the answer but, want some 2nd opinions. Since it's a fridge with a seal, can I just leave it sealed and be fine? The fridge does not circulate outside air or run a fan of anykind. I am thiking I need to use the fumigation bags they provided us for food, and seal them in there with some beads and a Bovedas. I'm just not sure I'll have enough bags. So leave em in the fridge, and they'll be fine, or bag em?

Uh...why take the risk? I know it's got to have a good seal but those chemicals are meant to penetrate into any an all opening. Tape the sucker and then bag it.

I would not bet my investment on the seal of any cabinet/furniture when it comes to fumigation.

On another thought...have you thought about taking your stash to a good shop to hold while it's being done? I know of a couple not that far from you.

ya know, that's not a bad idea. I'll see what I can do about that.

I won't beable to bag the fridge, What I would do is bad the smokes and put them back in the fridge. I think storing them at the B&M is my first choice right now.

Man, I wouldn't take the risk. I'm guessing you have a ton of smokes and an amazing selection. Would it really be that much trouble to ziplock everything and bring it to a friend's house?

I mean we trust our food in the bags, so the smokes should be fine If I bag em, but i think a B&m Will hold em for me if i ask.

shrink wrap the entire fridge? I think you can get a roll of that stuff pretty cheap.
nah, the bags they give you for food and stuff are special and don't allow any fumes to get through. Even a thick trashbag will allow air poison to get through. I think I'll just wheel it next door. Not sure whay that never crossed my mind.

So I asume you do not have a garage. Or if you have a good friend that you could move them to there house untill you get back.
