I recently purchased a display rack with 4 compartments. It came with heat tape on the bottom of the rack but it felt as if it was not working 100% and plus my temperatures were low. As a short term fix I purchased heating pads which are regulated by a thermostat. The heating pads are adhered to the bottom/underneath the rack. The cages still do not feel humid enough when I stick my hand inside even though I placed the water bowl over the heating pad. The rack seems to been build with a type of thick plastic -- you can get an idea of what I have by going to this website:

Any suggestions on the best way to heat this rack in a cheap fashion? I keep 4 snakes in the rack (each having their own compartment) -- 2 balls and 2 boas. Any advice?

Thanks
