humidity pads

[viper32x]

about 2 months ago someone was talking about humidity pads that you soak in water for about a day then you put it in your cage and it keeps the humidity up. well the point is i need to know where to buy them but i can't find the thread, so if someone knows where to buy it or knows where the thread is please let me know. Thanks

I'm interested to hear how well these work.

Want a humidity pad? Take a towel. Soak it. Wring it out. Put it in the cage. How simple is that? :D

Invictus,
If I recall correctly, these remain moist for 2+ weeks, and are not wet for any part of that period.

That's right. I was the one who talked about them. They are called Humidi-mats & are filled with a gel-like substance that soaks up the water, then releases it slowly over a 10-day to 2-week period. A small one is under $5 (US) and in my opinion they are a terrific buy. My BP's enclsosure is at a constant humidity level now that is very appropriate for her, and her last shed was perfect. If you do a google search on humidi-mat, you will find several suppliers.

Hmmm... didn't know they were so cheap. For that price it might be worth saving my towels for my own showers. :D

u might want to try and add a little bit of hydrogen poroxideto your towels so u dont get any milldew or other bacteria growths.

just a thought and its harmless in the proper amount.

They look like the same thing as cricket pillows, is it the same concept?
