    humidity in tanks is a pain, the reptifogger will help a lot honestly i don't think you can have too much humidity, this all my opinion but when my guys and girls are about to shed i wet the paper towel in their bins which makes it so humid there bins are covered in condensation (on the inside) so that would be a super high humidity level, perfect shed every time and i haven't noticed any down sides to doing this. also make sure when they are in shed they have a large enough water bowl to chill in where they can completely submerge themselves in water ( i use water dishes for dogs ) they will coil up in there waterdish and soak which will help a ton in getting that perfect shed. idk how others do it but in 2 years of having 6 BP's iv only ever had one not perfect shed using these methods, hope it helps.

    i also see you have real wood in your tank, which is fine just keep an eye out for mold when your upping your humidity that high. heat lamp + high humidity and porous wood could cause mold, if it does just bleach the piece of wood that got mold on it with some watered down bleach and let it air out for a few days.
