I live in southwestern Indiana — during the winter the humidity is around 20%, during the summer it goes up to 40%-60%. I’ve never really had any issues with it being too humid, so this isn’t something I would have any experience with. I do have a humidifier in my reptile room to help keep it in the upper range so all my snakes can be more comfortable.

Rather than a tabletop dehumidifier, you might have to look into a bigger one or multiple smaller ones to bring down the humidity in the whole room, because it’s likely an environmental thing over an issue with the enclosure itself.

50% humidity is totally fine, anywhere from 30% - 60% is good for them. I live in the Vancouver (BC) area, where it’s always humid. If you want to lower your humidity, you may want to consider a smaller water dish. I found that our 5" water dishes were causing our humidity to skyrocket, so I swapped them for 3" ones and haven’t had issues since
