What kind of substrate are you using? Is it real wet? I have to work to keep my humidity up much more than the other way around.

To decrease humidity you need to increase ventilation.

Yes, more ventilation. If you live in an area where there is high humidity it can be a challenge. Also try using a smaller water bowl in the enclosure.

What kind of cage are you using?

10 gal tank... does it have a screen lid? If it’s just a plastic tub with holes in it, put in more holes on all sides so you can get a good cross ventilation, smaller water dish and dry substrate. If you have heat under the water dish that will increase the humidity also.
