high humidity

ive heard alot of people having problems with low humidity but i live in north texas and its very humid here. i dont have my snake yet but im setting everything up. i just put everything in there and before turning on my uth or even putting water in it, the humidity is at about 67. i feel like if i make more holes (im useing a tub) the humidity wont change because its so humid here anyways. HELP lol also, im useing newspaper as substrate. (by the way, how many layers of newspaper should i use?)

I dont think 67 is bad. might want to shoot for 60 though. I don't really know how to lower humidity other than substrate change which you have done. High humidity is only a problem when it is constantly over 80% (in my opinion).

well i am adjusting my uth right now and as it goes up so does the humidity. its at 87.7 degrees (the prob is over the uth, about an inch abouve the substrate) and 72 humidity...eeek.

you could melt some more holes in the side of the tub, that should help lower the humidity.

Add more holes to the tub

like i said...the humidity here is to high as it is.

What is the humidity in the room?

uhhh, idk right now, ill check later, im still trying to adjust the tub.

I was going to post about this.. what do people do for high humidity?

Humidity in minneapolis has been really high these past few weeks, 50-70% in my apartment indoors.

well when i first got out the humidity reader it was at 65... so i guess more holes could help....ill try it...
