Yeah, where the scorpion lays it's dry. That's because that part is covered with the hide(between the two stones). I don't think I should remove her hide when spraying with water, or should I? I regularly mist the whole enclosure to keep the humidity above 70%.

Alright everyone, thanks for the suggestions. I've added more from the substrate and sprayed more water to bring up the humidity.
I have one of those temp+hygrometers from eBay(see pics). Also, I purchased a 14W heat pad so I can add it if necessary.
