If you're using a heat lamp this will suck up a lot of the humidity in the tank. You could stop using it and modify the set up to work with just a UTH alone.

If you're not using a lamp there are a few things you can do.

A. Mist the tank routinely to maintain humidity. Just be careful to not mist too much to the point where you have damp substrate.

B. Creating a humid hide in the tank for the snake to search out when he needs. Most people use moss in a plastic tupperware with a hole cut into the top of the lid.

C. Use a humidifier in the area the tank is in in an attempt to bring the over humidity up in that area of the room.

I do have a heat lamp but i had no problems with humidity before the insulation, i just put the insulation on yesterday and all day today i have had to mist like every 2 hrs.

A. Before putting on the insulation thats what i did, misted it about 2-3 times a day and it kept really constant at about 50% humidity.

B. Ok well i do have a humid hide for her, with moss in it and she goes in there whenever

C. I tried a room humidifier but it was hard more "me" to live in, made my whole apartment muggy.
