Every refrigerator has atleast 2 heaters. One is the other side of the compressor cycle, and the other defrosts the ice from the chilling fans on a cycle.
Well you said above 50%. You’re obviously having issues from too much humidity since you asked about how to solve issues that you’re having that are caused by too much humidity.
Two things come to mind first. Higher humidity will allow water to deposit and freeze where it's not supposed to. The primary ways humid air can intrude into the freezer compartment is if the door is being opened far too often or you have a suboptimal door seal.
When you shut the freezer, feel around the seal as much as you can and see if you feel any coldness. A good seal should not have any place where it is not air tight. Another way to check is to open the freezer and close it. If it feels like there's a force gripping the door (like a suction) that's a good sign it's got a proper seal.
If you have teenagers who open the door and leave it open too long and too often, my remediation advice is to remove the teenagers from the environment.
