Pollinate with ice tent?


We live in a very hot climate 90 degrees plus and like to pollinate with ice 
so the fruit doesn't abort. We are using 1" styrofoam in a loose fitting 
cover around the female flower.  How long should this be done? 1 day 2 days ? 
It doesn't state how long to do this in World Class Pumpkin II book.  I bet 
pumpkinpirate 1  would know.
