pics of your cage would also help, or more detail, do you have a screen/mesh top on it? or is it wood? Is the hatch or door to the cage on the front or the top? what is your substrate? If your hatch or door is on the top of the cage, or if you have a screen/mesh top, id recommend putting alluminum foil on the top of the cage, this also helps trap heat in, it will allow the water you spray to evaporate up onto the foil and go nowhere, just leave a whole for your light and breathing. As for substrate, my mixture i use works very well, i use cypress mulch, with eco earth aka coconut dirt mixed in with it...i just put it in a bucket and add water and mix it around than poor it in the cage, every few days ill turn the substrate with water added...keeps my cage above 75% always. Davedragon has his doors on the front of his cage and I think he said he added some glass in there over his screen but im not sure, hopefully he will read this and answer that for you, again depending on where the opening to your cage is.
