I wouldn't worry too much about humidity for dumerils. They come from arid regions. I've never really checked the humidity other than breeding time when I'm warming up the snakes. I then spray them a couple times a day.
If your concerned you can allways put a bigger water bowl in the cage.

I believe i read somewhere that Dumerils require about 50% humidity. But like Piers, I have never checked my Dumerils cages. If there shedding fine I wouldn't worry about it. If your using a glass cage with a screen lid then you may want to make sure the water bowl is good size.
