I'm having a bit of trouble the last few days keeping Dexter's tank humidity down. I live in a very humid state so keeping it down is a task anyway, but it's been very warm and raining quite hard here the last three days which has increased the humidity. When the rain started a few days ago I hid rice socks in his tank and I have a dehumidifier running near his tank (I have to constantly anyway) and I added another small heat lamp to try and get humidity down. At this point I'm not leaving a water bowl in his tank. Only putting it in here and there for a short periods of time. I've closed all my windows and started a small fire in the wood furnace. Now that he's more comfortable with me I'm misting him a little outside his tank. His basking side is reading at 108 degrees F. His shady side is at 88 degrees, but his humidity is at 56 right now. Does anyone else have any other suggestions on ways to get it down?
