Any particles of dirt that have got down in between the grille’s metal mesh can hopefully be picked out with fine tweezers or a dental pick (cheap dental tools are available on eBay). You might need to do small sections at a time.

On more stubborn contamination you can use a damp toothbrush to dislodge the grime, then wipe with a cloth to clean the grille. Eventually they can be wiped off with the cloth. If the grille has debris adhering to it, you may need to dampen and soften it a few times. The alcohol is my preference since it should thoroughly sanitize the grille as well as clean it.

The cloth can have been dampened with either warm soapy water or a 70% alcohol sanitizer spray. If the grille only requires a light clean, wipe it all over with a damp microfiber cloth. Hopefully any dirt is on the surface of the grille and not lodged between the separate layers. An outer thick metal wire mesh, then a finer metal wire mesh, and finally a thin layer of black windscreen foam. When I examined the grille on my Blue Yeti Blackout edition microphone it appeared to consist of three layers. The grille can be trickier to clean, depending on how dirty it is and because of the way the Blue Yeti is constructed. Dampen a microfiber cloth with alcohol sanitizer then wipe the base of the microphone with the cloth. Don’t spray the base since you don’t want to get moisture into the USB or headphone sockets. If your Blue Yeti has a foam cover over the grille it is OK to spray the alcohol sanitizer directly onto the sides of the Blue Yeti, and then wipe it off with a clean microfiber cloth. The 70% alcohol works better that pure alcohol because it will take longer to evaporate from the surface, allowing the alcohol enough time to do its job of sanitizing the microphone’s body shell. The alcohol will ensure any germs on the surface are killed. Alternatively, dampen the cloth with a 70% alcohol sanitizer and wipe the microphone body. Wipe the surface of the mic body until you have removed any dust and dirt. Wet a microfiber cloth in warm soapy water and then squeeze out any excess so you have a damp cloth. The metal body shell usually only needs a light clean. There are two part of the Blue Yeti that you need to clean, the body shell of the microphone and the metal grille.

How to clean your Blue Yeti microphone body and grille If we can keep the surface free of dirt, a wipe or spritzing of alcohol sanitizer spay will sanitize and kill invisible microbes. However, it is also possible to sanitize the microphone without needing to clean it. While the sanitizing is done using a chemical cleaner or disinfectant, often soap or alcohol. We can remove the dirt by physically rubbing it off the surface with a cloth or brush. The first is removing dirt and contamination, and the second is sanitizing the microphone.
