As far as I know icing only occurs below zero, maybe if you fly lower it might help.

It will get better as the h2o is removed. Best to use carb heat early on long approaches to avoid ice in the first place.
Are there any numbers on how propeller ice can affect power?
the c182s and all other single piston engine cessnas built after 1996 uses fuel-injected engines. They don't need carb...

So I would say at the least, your in no fly icing conditions regardless of whether it is the wing or prop. At least you can change the weather.
