Have Reptiles?????

Maintaining Proper Heat and Humidity for Reptiles

Humidity in a reptiles enclosure is important at all times. Maintaining the proper humidity level is especially important when the reptile is shedding its skin.
Maintaining the correct level of humidity in your terrarium, vivarium or other reptiles enclosure can be achieved with a Habitat Monitor ® Humidification System.
Maintaining Proper Humidity Levels In a Vivarium or Terrarium
Snakes and large lizards also require proper humidity levels. The Habitat Monitor ® is an ideal way to maintain proper humidity levels for any snake, lizard or other reptile.
The health of your reptile will depend on the correct level of humidity, heating and lighting.
Reptile heaters should be compact and weather proof and be able to provide a variable climate for a reptile habitat.
Tropical humidity and reptiles
Reptiles that are part of the natural ecology in humid and tropical zones have adapted to their climate in a variety of ways. Introduced reptiles kept in tropical zones that are not exposed slowly to high humidity levels can suffer from humidity stress. Tropical areas are often humid because the upper level of clouds are saturated with humidity or water vapor and this can create rain.
Regardless of what humidification system you use and how you humidify a reptiles area, a variable climate and different levels of humidity can be the best solution for your reptiles habitat. This will allow your reptile to find an area of the terrarium or vivarium that suits it.
