Thanks! I tried this after bumping the humidity(which wasn't low in the first place), and it came off, but it wasn't easy. I decided not to soak him, just dipped the q-tip in some lukewarm water and squeezed it out until it was only damp. I had to keep stopping because he had to open his mouth to breathe but after the shed was off the right nostril he calmed down a bit because he could breathe much better. Also, it looked like it was stuck shed from a few cycles, he wouldn't have been able to get it off by himself anyways.
