how to make the temperature right INCUBATOR?

I made a homemade incubator, the temperature is 105 Degree F. how can I lower it to 100 D. F. but keep it above 98 so anywhere in-between 98-102 Degree fahrenheit

1. well what r u using for the heating device? I suggest getting a fish tank heater. you should be able to work with that to get the temp you want. What are you incubating?
2. You can buy a thermostat control at the pet stores. However it will only let you control it. It the temp in your house changes so does it so you will have to check on it constantly. There is a Aquarium Top Brooder you can buy over the Internet. It's 160$ with tax. That's what I use for my babies. I don't have to worry about watching temp now as it does the work for me. It's just like the thermostat in your home. Safer.
