    Humidifier for wood enclosure?

    Ok. I need help. I have a custom wood enclosure that I have my Dum in and can't seem to do anything about the low humidity. It's 36x24x14 (small but the only one she likes) with an acrylic front and a screen top.

    I placed peel and stick tile on the sides and used kitchen/bath caulking to seal it. I foiled the screen top leaving room for ventilation. I can't use an UTH so have to stick with the CHE (which dries it out faster).

    My heat is spot on but I can't get the humidity above 34% without misting every time I walk by.

    The question is should I try a humidifier and what kind do you suggest? My Leela has suffered one bad shed and I don't want her to go through that again!

    Help Please

    I use one of these. A Zoo Med Reptile Fogger Terrarium Humidifier. Link http://www.amazon.com/Zoo-Med-Reptil...2835759&sr=8-1 Along with this. A Zoo Med HygroTherm Humidity and Temperature Controller. Link http://www.amazon.com/Zoo-Med-HygroT...2835759&sr=8-4 Works fine with a CHE. It'll keep the humidity where you want it. Use distilled water only with it.
