I'm having severe humidity issues
As i stated in the title i am having trouble maintaining humidity. My male killer bee doesn't seem to care much but im worried over time this could hurt him. I mist probably 3-4 times a day and it always drops... STATS FOR NERDS I honestly don't know where to start. When i wake up it's low... mid 20's low 30's. I mist it and it goes up to about 50 :D for about 10 minutes :( then after an hour is down to ~30 again. I can't afford moss from the pet store and sphagnum moss solutions i tried online don't do a good job and break up in a week. Probably not worth 9 bucks for something that ultimately doesn't work. He weighs 230 grams and is about 6-8 months old. Very good eater; you wouldn't even be able to tell im terrible with husbandry. I have tried aluminum foil, plastic, card paper (to cover the top) and it still drops??? He is in a large low terrarium by the way. Also i haven't seen a poo or pee in his cage for like a week any ideas as to why?

A humidifier in the room will do wonders. It will be easier to regulate getting main room up.

Do most of what is suggested here on my tanks, and then I add moss to the corners and around water bowls, thoroughly dampened to ensure it will help humidity and be more likely to stay in place.
Re: I'm having severe humidity issues
As KMB has said on here many times, stop worrying so much about the humidity of the whole tank. Place damp moss in the snake's hides. Once the moss has dried out naturally, redampen and repeat. If the snake is in shed, make sure the moss never dries out. The snake spends the majority of its life in its hide, so if the hide is humid it doesn't really matter if the rest of the tank has low humidity. I've been practicing this method now for three shed cycles and have full, clean sheds every time.
If you can't afford moss, that's a bigger issue.
