my humidifier is those comon type for chiken farm make in taiwan, i don't use hygrostat, just set timer to on off alternately every half hour from morning until midnite. inside the farm also have a few tanki with water fountain (buy from aquarium shop), in this way can mange the humidity between 80rh to 95rh. if your bird house flooring is wood better don't use humidifier sure kena white ants, last time i call white ants company charge me rm 1500 they use one type of powder chemical put on the wall (in a box), white ant problem sesolve, but I wonder it can last for how long, they said can't last at lease 5 years no problems.
