Well, the attic problem has been solved. I added two more vents on the top of the roof (to make three) and four vents down each side of the garage under the soffits. There's great airflow in there, now. I can give you a number for the guy that did that if you like. His whole business is going around doing roofing-type fixes like this and he seems very good.
As for the humidity within the garage, I'm still running my dehumdifier and I have the humidity down to 40-45%, which is where I want it, but I do have to manually empty out the water at least every couple of days and sometimes every day. I also have my attic door propped slightly open to allow some venting to the outside, which is fine in this weather, but not a solution for the winter.
I have a guy lined up to install two exhaust fans, but I'm losing faith that will happen as fast as I want it to. I will have that done somehow, someway before winter, though.
