How are you measuring the humidity? What makes you think it is too low? Having a screen top will allow much of the moisture to evaporate, rise, and escape. Do you have a large water area that he/she can soak in?
Bark substrate is not recommended for igs since it carries a risk of impaction. Igs like to go around licking and sampling their environment.

Fake turf may catch toenails..lino would be good. Those stick on humidity gauges aren't very accurate. Try a digital hygrometer/thermometer. I bought one for around $15.

I bought my first digital thermo/hydro meter at a pet store for $25. Later that week I found them at Wal-Mart for $7. I now have a few of them at different places in the housing. What's the difference between the $25 meter and the $7 one? The expensive one came with a AAA battery 
I am using stick on tiles I bought from the local home center for $.88/each. They look great and clean up is quick and easy.
