Currently all `sensor` entities that have `%` as their `unit_of_measurement` are added as `Humidity Sensor` to HomeKit. It is planned to add a device classes to the `sensor` component and redefine what gets added as `Humidity Sensor` in the future. If you don't want one of the `Sensors`, use the filter option: https://rc.home-assistant.io/components/homekit/#filter
