    mist the substrate. or, if you have a humidifier, put it near the tank.:)

    Im assuming its a glass tank, if so mist the sides of the tank but not the substrate.

    I have to mist the cage probablly twice a day when my girl goes into shed. I have the same set up, and misting works pretty well.

    *Edit* Whoops, just read the rest of it and realized you were using newspaper. I can't help you there....I haven't ever used it before. Someone else will chime in here soon I'm guessing that actually reads the whole thing before they post :P Sorry about that.

    Make sure your water bowl has a large surface area.

    Take the foil off the top temporarily and lay a moist towel on the lid. Worked for me back when I used tanks.

    Make a humid hide.

    You can use a bowl and put sphagnum moss in it and mist it once a day or if you can't get the moss just get a bowl and put some damp paper towels in it on the warm end.
