Latrodectus obscurior humidity requirements

[arachnum]

Hello dear fellow spider keepers !
I have a simple question about Latrodectus Obscurior. Should I mist their enclosure or they do fine without any high humidity ? If add a wet cotton once a week, is it sufficient or should I do something else ? I’d like to get this species and I saw that someone had posted a comment regarding the process of humidity monitoring. What do you think ?

Cotton swabs are not a good way to provide moisture for anything. They are bacteria magnets and many animals don't learn the concept of seeking it out for water.

Give them water via misting.
