I stick a double face tape in the back cap of my lenses... It sticks all the dust off the lens and the camera body.

Good idea. Never thought of that.  I'm not sure if it will actually attract the dust or pull it in, but any floating around I guess is better landing there than moving around and ending up in the back of the lens.

Interesting idea.  Does the stickiness last long?

Yeah, I replace them twice a year.
