You can use a hand-held spray bottle, or a pressure sprayer with a light mist, depending on your preference. Spray the entire enclosure, including the animal, substrate, and cage walls, with a light mist.

Is 40 humidity too low for ball python?

In their natural habitat, the relative humidity ranges from 55 to 70%, but it can rise to over 80% in the morning. You should aim for a humidity level of 55-60% for your pet ball pythons. To keep pythons’ skin moist enough to shed and avoid respiratory infections, this humidity level must be maintained.
