My guess is that you'd smash the cigars long before you did any damage to the eggs / bugs. It is however, a guess.
There are a lot of guys that freeze questionable smokes. Do a search and you'll see several threads. I've never done it, but it might be worth a try if you are worried.
Good Luck - B.B.S.
It won't help as the eggs have already been exposed to oxygen. Vacuum sealing the cigars will slow down the metabolic processes the eggs need to grow and hatch, but if they are going to hatch, they will hatch. Can't stop nature.
The vacuum sealer might do two things for you though.
1) It will slow down the maturation of the cigars for a longer fermentation and promote better flavour after an extended period of time, hopefully. But this only bears fruit after something like 5 years.
2) It will get rid of the excess moisture in surrounding the cigars, so when you do pop them into the freezer, the possible damage from the ice crystal formation of the moisture will be minimized.

Will the eggs not bust open in a vacumn?
