Not sure about the Dendrobaena. I think that's what they call Red Wigglers here, which are toxic to some reptiles. Not toxic to pacs, but emit a gross yellow mucus that many frogs don't want to eat. Hopefully someone else knows for sure
Try covering half the terrarium with cling wrap or something to keep humidity in. I usually end up re-wetting the soil about once a week to keep it at the right level of moisture. You want it to stay wet but not like, muddy.
For the Hygrotherm, you set the humidity you want it to stay at, and the sensor tells it how often to come on to keep it at that level.
