Is my humidity too high
I have a screen top with with cling wrap over the top seems like my humidity stays at about mid 70s but I just checked and its registering at 80% should I remove some cling wrap to help with ventilation?

Removing some would probably be good, but 70%-80% humidity is perfectly fine for BP's. The average humidity level in their native habitat is in the mid to upper 70's year round.

I would suggest 40-60% there is no need for higher.

"Ball pythons (Python regius) are found at the edges of the forest lands of Central and Western Africa" http://www.anapsid.org/ball.html
Based on this map I found from http://www.findlocalweather.com/weat...ty_africa.html, 40% - 70% seems like a good range to keep humidity at.

So long as there's no condensation, you're good. Condensation means things are getting wet. Stuff can start to mold and your snake is at a higher risk of getting an RI.
