Humidity

How much Humidity do i need in order to keep a genral Cp terrarium my Bog 30gal long has H of around 70% and my 10 gal potted terrarium has around 60%. what are some tips to keep humidity in?
 
You can cover your terrarium (just like a fish tank with a light on top). That keeps some of the moisture trapped inside. Make sure there is a vent so mold does not occur. This is the method I have use for about 2 1/2 years (works well). During the winter months I had a few problems with the heater kicking out dry air. As of today it will change

.

The other method is to buy a humidifier (that is how things have changed for me today:)).  Summer is around the corner and people are starting to buy Dehumidifiers. Stores are having sales on humidifiers right about now. I just purchased a humidifier for 20 dollars @ Mal*Wart giving my cps thee added comfort they so dearly need

. I am sure there are other methods but those are the two that I know about and have worked for me (second method I am sure will work - not tested on my part but 99% sure it will work).

Hope that helps,
