Euphrynichus bacillifer - need help

[zerdrek]

There is differing information all over the internet, some say not to mist this species (Euphrynichus Bacillifer) often, and other things tell me to mist often every day. I'm really just looking for someone that has experience with this specific species of Whip Spider that can tell me what to do regarding humidity - how often to mist, what to try and stay around, etc.

This is my first time owning one of these and info seems scarce for the Euphrynichus Bacillifer, so any help is greatly appreciated.

the substrate should not turn into a swamp and start to rot

other than that they like moisture, but adults can tolerate dryer conditions for a while, they do drink from water bowls if you angle a stick or piece of bark into it

if you want anything more specific we will need to see your setup, the ventilation it has and your account on how fast it dries. Also if you have small nympths or adult whipspiders.

One whipspider, definitely not an adult. Currently feeding 1/4" Crickets. My ventilation is good, the water dries kind of fast but I worry about whenever my hygrometer sometimes sits at what I consider possibly too high after spraying a lot. I've had a water dish in there for a while but no stick or bark angled into it, good tip thanks. I'd really just like to get an idea on how much humidity to aim for with this species and I can be at peace.
