I always had a hard time getting the humidity in my reptarium to be a constant 80-90%. So I went to the fabric store (first time :) and found some 4 guage vinyl. The same stuff that is used in shower curtains but thinner. I also picked up some 1/2 wide elastic and a low temp glue gun. I folded the vinyl over the elastic and glued the vinyl to itself making sure not to glue the elastic to the vinyl. Its kind of like a pair of sweat pants with only one leg. You want the glue just hot enought to melt the vinyl a little bit but not so much that it melts all the way through. I tested it on a small peice to get it right. I then glued the two long ends together so it would fit over the cage like a sock. Then I tied off the elastic at the right tension to allow me to raise and lower the "sock" around the cage. I use the humidifier a lot less now and my chams eyes and skin look much better.


Wow, look at that humidity!
