I keep mine between 70 to 85. Sometimes i let it drop down a little to 60 just to let it dry out. The key with high humidity is good ventilation.
As far as being aggressive when they get older i think it's because people tend to stop handling as much when they get bigger. My Borneo gets handle at least twice a week. She as never struck and only bit me once. The bite was totally my fault. I picked her up when i could tell she was in feed mode. The day before feeding and i for got to wash my hands after playing with the dog.
They are by far one of the laziest snakes around, but when they do strike they have all that stored up energy. And they hit like a Burmese or Reticulated with pure power. They have the nick name Snapper Heads for a reason.
