Ooh, that seems like the best tip i've heard. I've done the damp pillow case, then reg pillow case with damp wash cloths, and they don't work well at all. I think this will work well for anyone having trouble. When snakes are going in shed i mist 2-3 times daily (newspaper, so doesn't hold moisture like wood), anyways it works great. (The last sentene is aside from your comment snakehobbyist)When I know my snakes are going into shed, I always put a little bit of damp sphagnum moss under the warm hide. I also use newspaper so this keeps the moisture in the hide up despite my humidity being 50-60% in the rest of the tub. I'll usually mist it once in the morning and once at night. Ever since I started doing that, I've never had any issue shedding. I had a rescue who had a complete stuck shed. The washcloth trick was all I needed to help her with that first shed. Since then I've never had an issue with her.
