if its a screen top try covering part of the top with a moist towel and see if that does the trick.

Hi,

I would try completely covering the screen top with tinfoil on the outside and taping it down (no tape inside the enclosure please ) and then cutting out the space needed for the lamps.

haha okay i have seen it a lot and i keep wondering what the hell. i thought it was just a really ugly chihuahua. it would actually be awesome to have one of those as a pet.

Hmm,

Well one possible suggestion would be try and use only one light (either red or blue) - that would hit the humidity a little less possibly and would avoid night time drops which are only really needed for breeding conditioning?

Another suggestion would be to use a humid hide - what does the humidity sit at if you do not keep spraying?
