Something like this? I put aluminum on the cool side just to show you if that is how is should look. I need towel. Is it a paper towel or a real towel and is the air circulation good? I switch from day and night cycle would I need to change the towel and aluminum wheniI change the lights?

Something like that.
1.) Make the open area where you put the heat lamp. You don't want that sitting on top of the aluminum foil.
2.) If you have tape to secure the foil, use that. But, only on the outside of the tank.
3.) Damp towel on one side. I dampen my towel a few times a day with a spray bottle.
Those 3 things along with putting the water bowl over the UTH should help raise your humidity.

I cut a hole in the aluminum and put the heat lamp into it. I am gonna do the same with the towel.

You want the towel directly over the screen, though. Just post a picture when you're finished.
Good luck!

Just realized that putting a towel near the heat lamps is kinda a fire hazard xD. Would it be ok if I used aluminum on both sides?

Yea, that would be fine.
Or, just use the towel on the opposite side of the heat lamp, and aluminum on the side where the lamp is.

Man, I leave my snake alone. He looks almost dead. It takes him a good week to shed. And what a mess in the water bowl- skin and a massive dump!
And it reeks too!

This is the final project.

The humidity is almost at 60% and I only put it in 10 mins ago. Is the vent too small? It is a 20 gallon tank
