u can spray the tank 1 or 2 times a day
or there are some other ways
like takin a bottle and pokin holes in the bottom then puttin some newspaper under the holes then fill it wit water and put it on top of the screen let it drip into a trap.
ive never done this but i read it on a care sheet

stop using an aquarium (use sterilites/rubbermaids, or a homemade cage)
dont use heat lamps (use heat pads, flex watt or radiant heat panels)
use cypress mulch

heat lamps are great for drying out air...get a heat pad and cover your screen top with plastic (leave an inch or so on each side for ventalation)

Then cover all of the top except the heat lamp part with plastic...you will still have enough ventalation and it will help with your humidity. You can also put a bowl of damp towels or paper towels over the heat pad.

I would use only plastic unless you mean to just wwight the plastci down. A towel will just absorb the humidity so make sure you use like a garbage bag or some kind of thing plastic on the screen.

i know the plastic is on the screen and the towel is on top of the plastic so it doesnt get to cold.
