Humidity

[Knight98]

I have recently got a bearded dragon. 36x18x18 wooden viv. Temps are fine 28celcius in cooler side upto 40c in basking. Using a infrared thermometer to test this. Just really struggling with humidity its getting out of control.
Any tips?

Hello, I'd suggest trying to get more airflow and maybe get a dehumidifier. Also what is the substrate you are using?

I would not suggest misting down the substrate as that will increase the humidity. Also what bulbs are you using?

Oh I am sorry I just saw the spray bottle and thought that you missed it it because the instructions on the substrate normally tell you to. Your lights look good although I've never seen those brands before. I'm very surprised that your humidity is high even with a dehumidifier and I'm kind of at a loss on what would be causing it. I would just keep trying to get airflow.
