Whenever I go to mist the cage, I also mist my snake, however, she gets very frightened and backs away and hides under pieces of wood, or whateve she's near. When she's on top of her tree, she backs so far that she almost falls off the branch. I don't know whether to keep on misting her, or leave her alone. Any suggestions? Thanks for the help.

I think it is a natural response to the water (which tends to give a chill) my snakes do the same thing but every once in while (more when they are going into shed) I catch them drinking the water that I spray at them. (I use warm water when misting now). I would keep on misting them too, it helps wash off any feeces they may have crawled threw before you got a chance to clean it out.
Good Luck
