I don't really care about the newspaper. I was just following the suggestions. I guess I'll try aspen alone at the next cleaning and keep the glass temp around 95 on the hot side.

thats what i did. i removed the paper towel and just set the uths to 94f and 84f. now i just have cypress mulch and if its not hot enought for them on top theyll have to burrow. now im at peace knowing that if they burrow they wont burn themselfs. good luck and dont get discouraged.
