Do leopard geckos need a damp area?

A leopard geckos habitat does not require a daily misting to bring up humidity levels, no. These animals require a humid hide in the terrarium. A humid hide is usually an enclosed area filled with peat moss or paper towel to retain moisture. A shoebox sized tupperwear container with a hole cutout works perfectly. Instead of misting their terrarium, Mist the humid hide daily and ensure a clean bowl of water is supplied daily.
