Default Humidity Detecting Switch

I've seen $250 humidity detecting fans (Broan?). I have a timer on my bath
fans, and motion detectors on my hallway lights (installed when my dad was
dying), so I can't believe they can't make a wall switch which detects
humidity. ANyone see one? Couldn't find one with google. *Besides the
bathrooms, I'd wonder if I can't have one for the house when I'm away and
don't want to have the heat or cool on just to prevent mildew. I hadn't used
cooling in years and the upstairs duct perspired onto my ceiling.

Mold in a shower is normal and easily killed by laundry bleach, mild
elsewhere is caused by water, either leaks or condensation in winter.
A humidity fan wont fix what you think it will and will trigger on a
rainy day bringing in more humidity.
