Your English is great, much better than my Chinese thru Google When first writing on translator it says one thing, but then it changes words around. Hog's=Pig's which was funny looking after it was used in certain phrases. lol So no worries about your English...you are doing great!

If your ambient temps is 85F or above, you don't need a hot spot, especially if your container is small like 5 quarts or 4 to 6 liters. I've been asking other keepers and so far all of them are saying high humidity is one of the problems you will run into with Hog's. You may be inducing stress more with the humidity than the vibration of opening and shutting cabinets.

I don't have a hot spot for mine. The temp range is as high as 84F during the day to about 77F at night. I'm in Texas the humidity is between 30% to 45% inside my house. They are doing fine, they roam around everyday.

Is there a way to bring the humidity down for yours?
