I'm tired of people just saying get a thermostat, or just set the thermostat to X degrees and you're fine without asking the necessary setup questions in order to help it get set up properly. A thermostat needs to be dialed in to make sure other parts of the cage aren't getting ridiculously hot. If it's not set up properly you might as well not use one.

I posted an extensive write up on how I place the probe for a che. Works exceptionally well...
