Personally, I wouldn't worry at 70%. 75 is when I start trying to lower it. My Balls actually seems to prefer it at 65-70. Their skin retains that nifty iridesence from a fresh shed for much longer (one or two of them hold it until their next shed) with humidity that high. So, I figure it's good for their skin. I haven't had a problem with RIs, so I figure it's all good.
