Humidity control 75gal tank
I'm having trouble keeping the humidity in my tank where I want it. It sits at about 30 which is way too low. I have tried multiple misting's a day and with in a few hours is right back at 30. I recently started trying tin foil over the tank lid but it doesn't work as well as I was hoping. I've only had my ball for for 3 months and her health had improved a lot since I've been taking care of her but I'd like her to have ideal conditions if I can. Any suggestions or advice to regulate (mostly rise) the humidity in a 75gal tank?

I have tried using damp wash clothes/ kitchen sized towels and that didn't seem to work that well either. I use lights over my lid so i worry the plastic wrap might get too hot that close to the lights.
I'm using aspen shavings right now. I was considering switching to coconut husk because it seems like it would hold the moisture better but I haven't heard much about how well it works.

Have you thought of maybe switching the lights out for a under tank heater?...it would keep the substrate from drying out so fast b/c the over head lights I've noticed tend to dry things out and in my opinion are best for dryer climates like lizards and such
