You could if you just wanted to clean it. A good trick or tip I can tell you man is pollen is very fragile it will die if there's to much moisture in the air. Male plants wont release pollen if the humidity is to high for this reason, so what I do is turn off my fans for about 30 min an let my humidifier run wide open for a bit then I'll turn my fans back on to dry it all out & it never has failed.
