So weird that the humidity is the thing i'm battling with most, I didn't think it was possible to have a humidity of less than like 80% anywhere in Louisiana. I swear just walking around feels like you just got out of the shower.
I also had major struggles with humidity, especially after moving my BP into a 40 gallon breeder tank. Humidity will always be a problem with glass tanks because the top is open the way it is. I covered the majority of my lid with foil and foil tape, and even have a large water bowl in there...however, it was still an issue. So, I purchased one of these:

I put it on a timer so that it only turns on for a few minutes every hour, and my BP hasn't had a bad shed in quite some time. The humidity still fluctuates a little, but is more constant that it was before. Once I have the case, along with the herpstat, I want to get a proper habitat...probable a T8 from animal plastics.
