    I wouldn't add water to the paper towels at all- you don't want a snake laying on wet substrate. There's other ways to increase the humidity- you might try including a "humid hide" with a damp sponge- rather than using damp sphagnum moss (as we normally would) which would be terribly "helpful" to mites if there are any lurking.
