I concur. Bloods don't like extreme humidity, although for some reason a lot of folks will tell you that they like things dripping wet, but those people are what I like to call 'wrong' :P
70-85% humidity is just perfect. Too high for too long and you're in for respiratory issues quickly. They also don't like high temperatures, often seeking refuge from anything over 85 degrees or so.
As for aggression, I assure you than any snake can be approach if the keeper knows and respects the animals needs. Even the most volatile Blood will eventually gain trust and calm down in the right person's care, but these are not for everyone. If a body is looking for something they can yank out of an enclosure, manhandle and toss back when they're bored of it, they'll likely pay dearly for that with a Blood, and rightfully so
