Pink Toe Questions

Well, I'm FINALLY getting my first tarantula on Tuesday. I'm getting a young adult female Pink Toe. Anyways, I've been doing quite a bit of research on them, but, I still have three questions about them in general:

1. What is the best way to keep their enclosure humid to their standards? I understand that vermiculite is awesome for holding humidity, and I was thinking of giving the substrate a light misting to keep humidity up, but, I'm not entirely sure if that would cause TOO much humidity.

2. Are crickets the best form of nutrition for them, or would you recommend something better?

3. I realize that tarantulas need heating. How do you guys best heat your tarantula's enclosures?

Sorry about all the questions, I just want to make sure that I can take the best care of my new girl. Thanks in advance.
