    Make alot more holes in the tub ( you could always tape some up if you get too many) And instead of getting an attitude, why not just stop using the ecoearth and switch to newspaper or paper towels? MUCH easier to clean, and much easier to bring down humidity.

    Re: New tub with fresh eco earth

    I used the eco-earth for a short time. Before you put it in the enclosure you need to dry it out. There are a few problems overly moist substrate can cause.

    If you would look around the forum, 90% humidity is FAR too much and yes even for just a week it can be harmful to the snake.

    As everyone else has stated, I recommend using aspen. I went from eco-earth to aspen and I will never look back.
