Here is what you need to do.
The herpstat will run the heat source at 100% power until the set temperature is achieved. This is normal behavior.
Stop moving the probe, and let the rack heat up. This takes time.
1. Attach the herpstat's probe (using hot glue/electrical tape/etc. Just don't use aluminum foil tape.) to the heat tape on the middle level of the rack
2. Get some sort of thermometer and stick it directly over the heat tape inside the tub on the middle level.
3. Adjust the daytime temperature on the herpstat until your thermometer reads somewhere between 88-92
You CANNOT have snakes in this rack right now.
If you don't have a thermometer go to walmart and pick this up for $12
