i read using plasic wrap on the cover works..i tried it and it did not work. i find wet paper towels work but i am concerned this way may start a fire. the paper towels are a inch away from the lamp..not sure if that still too close. is there any other way to keep humidity up? only other way i can think of is a humidifier which makes my room way too hot..was saving that method til winter. any other ways?
