Lovin' My Snakes!
I don't think it's an issue because one of my snakes stays in hers a lot. Maybe yours is closing in on a shed? Or if you're using your heater, the air might be dry. Maybe it just likes it!

You can probably safely keep the humid hide in there if you swap to dry substrate rather than damp once the shed is complete. You'll need to disinfect it regularly even then. Humid hides are designed to keep moisture in, so even with a dry substrate you need to make sure there's no build up of fungus or bacteria.
I left mine damp and allowed the snake to stay in there because she liked it. She ended up with scale rot.
