I think you have to be careful ;-) I blow clean till I can stand the
little "buggers" no more, then with great care, pull a swab over the
sensor from one edge to the other. It is moistened with fluid: lens
cleaning fluid. I "put" up with one or two small areas, as trying to get
rid of them only puts new ones on in my experience. DMR is the easiest
clean!!!

Good luck
