with mats an lamps on thermostats they will turn themselfs off when the temp goes over what there set at so just let the stats do they job. not alot u can do in this weather cool end temps will naturally rise with the ambiant air temp. make sure they got a fresh full water bowl an leave some windows open so theres so breeze through the room.

if anything 82.6f is a bit cool around 86 is better so I would leave the mat on

I would leave the heatmat on as it can take a while for the temps to settle down again once you switch it back on. Corns don't require a lamp anyway, as long as Roxy has water it shouldn't be a real problem.
