Can the DHT11 give reasonable readings?
It could be the ESP8266, try physically separating the DHT11, but I'm guessing that that will only help slightly.

Do you have some way of reliably calibrating the sensors? If not, then even if you are getting consistent readings, you'll have a hard time knowing how accurate your readings are.

While they're typically more expensive, it might be prudent to buy an infrared temperature sensor. If you have the budget, replacing the DHT11s with IR temperature sensors might just be a better solution, I saw that Sparkfun's MLX90614 was accurate within +/- 0.5 degrees Celsius. If you don't have the budget to replace your DHT11s, or don't want to be wasteful, perhaps you just buy one IR temperature sensor to use as a sanity check. These should be more reliable than DHT11s and you could even write a sketch to calibrate them based on the IR temperature sensor's readings.
