This is probably a stupid question, but if I am using a dew heater strip, should I use a dew shield as well? If it makes any difference, I have (what is labeled as) a 20W dew zapper on a 10" lx200. I have been using a homemade dew shield with the zapper, but it recently cracked in the cold and I was wondering if I need it.

Yes, dew shield + heater is the way to go.
The dew shield will help keep the corrector
warm.
