    Take a towel and get it wet (not dripping), fold it so it covers about 2/3 of the screen top or a little more. Just make sure you leave enough space between the towel and lamp to avoid a fire hazard. Just re-wet the towel as needed...

    Your temps are a little high? Try 80 on the cool side 90 on the warm side.

    And cover 3/4s of the screen top to keep the humidity in. Some people use foil, I've got plastic wrap taped. Some people use plexiglass. Some people use damp towels.
