Humidity tips

I'm in Florida so this isn't a common issue, but with the weather lately humidity doesn't hang out in their areas very long. Thankfully I've got the temps under control. I'd like to raise the humidity for my two shedding girls. Moist paper towel in hide okay? Don't have access to moss. One is on bark and one is on coco but neither will hold the moisture 😧

I got some Sphagnum moss of eBay and had it in within a week. :)

Helpful for next cycle but my girls tend to shed quickly

I had a problem with humidity at first in my viv. A member suggested putting a water bowl close to the heat lamp and it worked for me until I was able to fix my problem.

I have a screen top tank that is mostly blocked with plexiglass,save for a few strips for air flow and where I keep the lamp. When I'm having humidity issues I replace the plexi with damp towels, (mostly a winter furnace issue for me), it works in a pinch if your temps are good. I had to rewet them twice a day which is a bit of a pain but it kept my girl shedding properly.

The moist paper towel should work, I'm actually doing that right now for one of my girls who always seems to have some retained shed on her. Hopefully this will kick it up just enough to make this next one go smoothly.
