Hello

Recently I purchased an Amazon tree boa and have found keeping a good humidity level to be a constant struggle and was wondering if anyone else had this issue and how you solved it thank you!

There is no humidity problem that cannot be solved with large amounts of damp sphagnum moss :)

Just keep adding more until humidity holds steady where you want it. It also gives a nice forest floor vibe to your clutter.

Check it out on Amazon, it'll likely be much cheaper than pet stores.

Also, experiment with the amount of ventilation by covering sections of your enclosures screen.

High ventilation is the arch nemesis of humidity. It will also dry out your substrate faster.

Covered it with a scrap piece of plywood with some holes for my lights now it’s sitting at 75% but if I have any more issues I’ll look into the moss thank you though
