We had a humidity issue as well so we switched to Eco Earth. Coconut husk reconstituted with water and our humidity is easily 60% all the time. Only issue we have is right after we reconstitute it we have to let it sit for a day or so before changing the subustrate or we get to high humidity. It slao needs to be stired one a week or so to prevernt any mold/mildew build up be I love the stuff.
