Your better of using a Hoya $20 IR filter to collect all the dust then your lense.
I use a Hoya UV filter on the 35mm film camera and leave it on for the same reason, BUT I will quickly remove it if I'm after a good shot and the situation doesn't warrant it being there. Adding an extra piece of glass in front of the lens doesn't help if it's not needed. They are cheap and I dont mind flicking them in the bin and replacing them when it's time.
