    Guess who has a cool tidbit of useless information to interject. I do.

    You can kill the bacteria on a sponge by simply sticking it in the microwave for 30 seconds. No joke.

    Well, consider your information no longer useless, because I just used it!

    Unless you use distilled water, a fogger will leave a white powder residue all over the place. I use a room humidifier in the dry winter months.

    Will someone show me a picture of a hide like that? I am having a hard time seeing how to make it.

    dont waste your money with a fogger, go buy a pound of spagnum moss and make a humid hide for like $10 and works and looks way better.

    I bought a 15 dollar aquarium pump with clear hose....I have a huge water bowl in my RBI cage. I ran the hose right into the water bowl annd turn the pump on..it bubbles the water in which I was told created humidity like a humidifier.

    Re: Fogger for a BP?

    what kind of tank are u using ??... if its a glass tank with a screen lid - just cover the lid with plastic wrap and cut a fare size whole( outta the plastic wrap) above the water dish, start small and go bigger to bring down the humidity to 50-60% ... also using crushed coconut fiber as a substrate works really well to hold humidity.

    Re: Fogger for a BP?

    I had low humidity problems also but i fixed it with a small baby pool in my basement. I added a power head to keep the water moving. And i also added a heater and a waterfall. It also helps my crappy sinus problems.
