newspaper substrate and humidity
So I switched from Repti bark to newspaper as a substrate. My question is am I gonna have a issue with the paper getting wet? I don't want a issue with scale rot. And although I always check for urine and poop, I have a fogger. So any advice or opinions, thanks.

Thanks. I've been timid to use my fogger and his humidity dropped a little. It drips rarely, but I have a empty dish under the nozzle, so any built up water falls right in.
Re: newspaper substrate and humidity
I've been using newspaper that's been put through the shredder. It's been working for me, as humidity doesn't drop below 50% in my rack. It's usually 55%. A few of my snakes have had nice, clean sheds, so it's not an issue.
I switched to shredded newspaper because it's much more economical than other substrates. If it gets wet, it dries pretty quickly. Sauzo and M.P.C have brought up some good points. As well.
