Sure I swab frequently. Yamaha's Power Paper and BG's Pad Dryer work well...better luck with them than with zig-zags.
But with my grenadilla horn, I go all old school and add a little EVVO to my swab. The olive oil (or bore oil) coats the inside of my horn. Moisture slides to the bell. I rarely have any further problems.
I suspect others will give you a litany of reasons to not do this, but it works perfectly for me.
