It's not USB-based like you asked for, but I wanted a temperature and
humidity sensor I could place anywhere in the house and which could be
read by my computer.  My solution was to buy a Raspebrry Pi 3 Model B+
and a humidity sensor that plugs into its IO pins.  That's ~$40 total
cost.  Now I have a little computer that reads the temp and humidity
anywhere I put it (it communicates via my wifi) and makes those readings
available through a web service on my home network that any other
computer can query.  I could provide more details if this interests you
(outside the list, as this would be way off-topic for this list.)  It's
pretty simple to do, simpler than the web tutorials I found make it out
to be.  They're all pretty out-of-date when it comes to the software
setup involved.  That's gotten dead simple now.
