Low humidity areas/states/countries, how do you deal with this?

[Kanejosh]

Hey just thought id ask, to the guys and gals living in naturally low humidity areas how do you counter this effect on your little chams? I have humidifyer and a mist maker, I spray 2-3 times a day but it typically just lowers the temp and it's difficult to keep humidity up! I have a hybrid screen cage with 3 sides covered up.

Depending on the type of the chams n what humidity you try to achieve,you can also consider a glass terrarium.

I have panthers... i had glass enclosures but lots of people said they'd end up with RI... i lost a girl from unknown causes my others were okay in the glass. I just want to do the right thing for the little buggers

Since u told me is a panther,then i wouldn't recommend the glass enclosure,u can increase from 3 long spray to 6 short spray if u think your humidity is still too low! Try use a accurate digital humidity tester just to be sure is in the correct range,also u can put more live plants in there to help holding with the humidity.

I really appreciate your help =)

No worry,pleasure will be all mine,plus I got a bad reputation to keep

There are a lot of members on here from the UK that use "Vivs" which are glass terrariums for Panthers and Veileds so I wouldn't rule them out

I live near Buffalo, NY. So we obviously have similar climates. I use the repti-fogger, monsoon mister and have 3 live plants. We also have a full screened enclosure and I can keep the humidity in there at 100% if I direct the fogger in the middle. It's facing the outer corner and I can keep it consistently at 70 to 80%.
