When ever they get too dry, so about everyday. I used this for my ball python for a bit till I changed his substrate.

I was told not to use a heat lamp or ceramic heat emitter due the very issue you're dealing with. The thing heat well but ultimately dries out the air as well which is why you are having to spray so often. My son's pac has an eight watt heater on bottom and 4 watt on same side. I have found that we only need to spray once maybe twice (rarely) a day.

to be fair i have UTH too on the cages i've used them before and i didn't reach the temperatures needed for frogs which is 80 ish and also having UTH on the bottom is not safe for the frogs they naturally burrow to avoid heat so having heat there kinda desyncs them and can burn them that why i have the lamps.

It's so crazy because there is so many contradictions. My guy burrows by the heater and the non heater side. I have different temp gradients throughout the tank and the uth is on a thermostat and not always on

I use a ceramic heater and just pour water into the tank until the bottom layer is moist, it tries quickly enough to prevent mold and stuff. If the frog has a water bowl they'll sit in it if they need to soak.

So update my I've tryed paper towels and moss now on the opposite side of where my frogs nest themselves and my cages are still dry i now water my terrariums 3-4 times a day and i have 5 tanks now it is crazy the only thing i have no tryed yet is pexelglass because idk where i would get nor how much it would cost. any other tips?
