This is your problem. Inadequate insulation and air flow in your attic will give you a buildup of moisture, regardless of the humidity level inside your house. Like o4scoobysti said, check insulation and air movement.

Just had the same problem!!!

are you in a new house?

do you have hardwood?

get a humidity reader ($35 from Canadian Tire) that will tell you exactly what the humidity is doing in your house.

with hardwood as per our installers should be between 30%-35%
and that is exactly what mine was.

The problem I had was improper insulation in the garage. We have a bonus room and the vapor barrier was incorrectly installed. Once they dropped the dry wall they could see that some spots did not have any vapor barrier and other spots did not have the vapor barrier stapled...

I would check that out.

I hope that helps!

I do not have hardwood floors but did discover the access hatch to attic did not have vapor barrier or insulation so humidity vented upward. Found a humidity reader for $3.00 at canadian tire and it was up to 65 % insulated access need to put weather stripping on access and placed a large fan in attic to move air around more. Have avoided looking up there again as hatch is hard to close. House humitity is now 35-50 I keep two windown open a couple of inches to let humitidy escape.
Thanks for the info about reccomended levels.

We had the same problem, we installed one of these http://www.rona.ca/shop/~turbine-dua...ditioning_shop on our roof and it seems to help. We also run a dehumidifier.
