Beetles got one of my humidors :(

Well, my wife began moving my cigars to my aristocrat humidor and on the last humidor beetles had gotten to about 25 Felipe Pelo De Oro cigars on the bottom...told her to just throw them all out since she said it was pretty bad. What's funny is that she hated those particular cigars ever since I got them and had them sent to her then this happens lol....the cigars on top seemed to be unaffected, however, what worries me is that I had two Partagas 150s, 5 T110s, and 5 Anejos which I got personally from Cabi and a couple of other people here (which I had planned on smoking when I got back home from my deployment). They were on the very top of the affected cigars but don't show signs of infestation of damage, however, I told my wife to go ahead and double bag them and now she's in the process of freezing them. I guess the question I have is my Aristocrat is sitting at 66%/ fluctuating from 72 - 74 degrees..should there be cause for concern and how often should I have my wife check my humi? Also, have some expensive boxes of cigars in there sealed...and a bunch of other cigars sealed in cello and packaged in bundles (from ccom and the sister site). Should I be concerned about these and how likely are beetles to dig themselves out of celo, bundle packaging, or even from the sealed boxes themselves? I don't think it will be a problem as my wife said there was no signs of beetles in the tupperware containers or other humidors...plus she said the affected cigars had a "funky" smell from the very day I got them...and even smelled worse today when she opened them. They were sitting at 70%/72 temp. the last time she checked them about 3-4 weeks ago...now sure how reputable Pelo De Oro is (smokes seemed decent) compared to other reputable cigar manufacturers. Overall,think my wife feels bad about the entire situation especially since I'm deployed but told her not to worry about it. Any feedback would be great...also included photos of one of the affected cigars and my aristocrat filled (top shelf is suppose to be slanted but told my wife not to worry about it for now--drawers are also filled with a lot of Tat La Verites and other good smokes)
