    How can I keep my humidity down?
    My ball python tub has tons and tons of holes inside it goes to about 70% humidity and I don't have a fan to keep the humidity down is there any other way?

    My tubs stay around 68-71% as well. There's no condensation or anything that collects and I've heard this is still a safe range. So I don't get too stressed about it. ... but the only other options are MORE holes or a smaller water dish.

    What's the humidity of your room/house? If you just live in a humid place, there's nothing to worry about, especially since the tub has a bunch of holes already. It's only high humidity with poor air flow that's a problem.

    91 is MUCH too high. You need more ventilation.

    More holes and a different water dish. Maybe some pictures of the setup so we know exactly what we're dealing with.

    Another option can be a dehumidifier.
