I've read that this is a really common question, but I can't seem to find anything that works. I'm new to snakes, and have only had my ball about 5 days now. I obsess with all my animals, so my problems with humidity are needless to say bugging me terribly.

I've got a 20gallon tank, glass, with cypress substrate. It's got a wire mesh top. I've got a 75watt heat lamp, and a medium size undertank heater. I also placed a towel on top of the tank to try and restrict some airflow. I've already tried taking off heat lamp, which made the temp way too low, and I've tried taking off the undertank heater, which seemed to have no effect at all. His water bowl is in the cool area(I haven't tried moving it on top of the undertank heater, though.).

Can anyone help me?
