Hi everyone, at this time in Malaysia it is the rainy season, so when it rains heavily my outdoor enclosure will be flooded for a few hours. During days that are not raining it is usually quite hot(33ºC+) and her substrate will be dry. Anyone has done an outdoor mister or fogger? My enclosure is quite big, about 220 square feet. If it is misting I want it like a misting fan effect.

Thank you for your replies.

In the summer time here in Chicago I use a mister hose on those really hot days. I run it down the fence line. The torts can go under the mist if they want. It does help raise the humidity some. I also will just run a sprinkler.

You can do it "on the cheap"with a garden hose and a single sprinkler. It would easily do 200-250 square feet.
I have a misting system myself, but it replaced a simple sprinkler and works no better. It just looks nicer. I.M.O.
