I apologise if this was covered but I can't find the information.
Is mycosis a large concern as it is with other commonly kept inverts?
Looking at people's set ups it's already apparent to me that it's not generally as much of a concern as it is with some scorpions. The lack of threads on the subject confirms it too,but do tarantula keepers worry about it?
The second part of this question is whether arid species suffer from being kept long term in a high humidity "burrow type" environment rather than say a false bottom set up with ventilation where the top of the substrate is relatively dry but the burrow is the humidity of (mostly) the spiders choosing?
