i would worry more about respiratory infection and mold or fungal overgrowth Geckos are quite adaptable though and as long as the humidity doesn't seesaw rapidly, they should be fine. You can fill a fishnet bag or cheesecloth with plain white rice and place it in the cage out of reach. The rice will absorb excess moisture. A lump or two of coal will do the same thing. Make sure they can't reach that either.
