Dirty MAF Sensor?

Searched the forums some and couldn't find a direct answer. Is is a good idea to "clean" your MAF sensor every now and then. If so how do you go about doing it without killing it? I was curious as I have heard of some people doing this.
Thanks.

Thanks people. I would like to know what symptoms are linked to a "dirty" MAF sensor as well. I know what happens when they go bad, but is it necessary to clean them. Preventative maintenance?
