My room tends to get stuffy during the day so I have holes drilled on all sides of the rubbermaid, a whole for the lamp, and one other hole the same size incase I ever have to change things. Actually, it there because I cut it on the wrong side and Ihave to live with it. It has mesh over it but that is partially covered with that new sticky seran wrap stuff. Seems to have just the right hudidity and ventalation.
