Default Getting out rocks caught in my tires...

Just a question here...maybe dumb one but oh well.... I got 35"x12.5" Toyo MT's and I do get some bigger rocks stuck in between the large lugs which are easy enough to pick out, but was wondering if I should do anything about all the little rocks that get wedged in the factory siping. Are these small rocks going to cause any problems...or is this a non-issue? Should I just get out the large rocks caught in the lugs or what?

It's just makes an obnoxious clicking sound at like 20mph. Then by 30 the fly out. No need to worry there

I just use a key or a screwdriver and flick them out.
