as a working pro....
Careful handling is the first line of defence. (ok not everybody has multiple cameras and can avoid swapping lens in the feild, or grab a canon g5/pro 1 to go where my beloved Pentax's may perish).
I consider a rocket blower to be the second line of defence.
anything that needs more than that (hasn't happened yet) I'd take to the repair shop for a cleaning.
the price is reasonable. they're insured. I can write it off.

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

Many seem to prefer Rocket blowers and the like but blowing the dust somewhere else inside the camera seems like a bad idea to me

true, if that's what you're doing, but if you hold your camera upside down, while cleaning or whenever you remove the lens, gravity helps you out.
