HCA: Hermit Crab Association

I read the article on the right about humdity and it says that you can use repti foggers to raise humdty but the people at the lps says it doesn't really work. So does it work?

I can't say for sure about the commercial product, but our scratchbuilt units do a great deal to help, sometimes a bit too well.

I was at my local pet store today (Nature Pet Center), and I saw a volcano fogger, but I think that I would want to test it out before I actually bought one, and be sure that it fits into my tat. The fogger I saw was pretty big!

The volcanoe style foggers are generally made for tropical frogs, and those live in a vertical habitat, so tall isn't an issue there.

I think that this one was made for reptiles, like the basking-in-the-sun ones (lizards, snakes, etc...). It did not say that it was for frogs, though, but I guess frogs would like it.

But don't foggers function on cold, not hot? And how do they create the humidity, and the mist?
