 Very unsure on moutling?

i have recently got a giant blue scorpion or a malaysian forest scorpion. she is roughly 6 inches in length and is very aggresive. i been doing some research on moulting and from what i can tell it seems quite tricky business for wilma(cheesy name i know)lol. is there anything i can do to ease this? i keep her at 24/25 degrees and just over 80% humidity just wanted to check this is ok? pics to follow tomorrow hopefully? she also has a shallow pool in her tank with a pebble in it?

molting is quite easy just very uncomforable to watch at times, just make sure the humidity is high enough and there should be no problems really, all you can do is keep humidity up, shell do the rest as for the water bowl it sounds fine to me aslong as its easy to get in and out of, although to be honest larger scorps suck as emperors and malaysian forests its not really neccesary as well there big enough to get in and out of, but if ur a worrier like me, just get an exo terra water dish they have like a lil ramp so feeder insects dont fall in and drown

Thank you for your help. much appriciated. is there an easy way to tell if wilma is perganant do you know? from reading other links and stuff althougth wilma is no way close to bursting she has a little belly on her and is very defensive whenever i take the lid to the cage off and constantly go’s for me lol. just wondered if that is normal or if she could be pregnant.
