OK guys. I know the temp question has been asked several times. But my question is this. As my house is not air conditioned I have a wineador. But I will fill it soon I think.... If I freeze my sticks before hand, will sticks be OK at temps around 80° with proper humidity?
temp.... again!

Who's the noob??? 
Some people freeze everything so they don't have to worry about beetles. In theory, freezing kills any larvae but there is debate if a standard home freezer gets cold enough to completely kill everything. With that said, I would never be comfortable leaving my cigars in 80 degree temp long term.

Cool. I'm thinking of just putting my "yardgars" in a tuppador. It would free up a lot of space in my wineador for the "good stuff".
@AlohaStyle yes I'm still a noon! Lol

If you must do that, I would recommend using a cooler as they will help keep the temps a bit more consistent than tupperware. Also, put them in the coolest place in your house... in a closet in the middle of the house, under the bed, etc. Do you have a basement? If so, put them down there.

And what the hell is a noon??
I freeze everything that comes in. Theres a table on the internet that gives you the amount of time at a given temp to kill all the eggs. I freeze em for 5 days in a regular freezer than a half day in the fridge. If you have a deep freezer, you could probably cut it down to two days in the freezer.
