How to Clean DMs in Twitter
Twitter direct messages (DMs) allow users the opportunity to send and receive longer messages. Unfortunately, many advertisers use the DM function to auto-send spam messages for products and websites. Twitter offers no way to mass delete DMs and users subject to spam or other undesired messages must remove them one by one or use a third-party application.

Tips & Warnings
DMCleaner offers many specialized deletion options, including the ability to delete DMs only from blocked users. Block any users that spam you and use this option if you just want to delete their DMs.
