I only clean mine about once per year. Some corrosion is inevitable, but cleaning and greasing the battery terminals will prevent most of it, IF you have a good connection. After ten years, the inside of the cable clamps may be too rough for a good connection, especially after it has been scraped a few times. I had to replace one of the clamps on my car (cheaper than a new cable). Grease increases the resistance a bit, but helps prevent corrosion. Small acid leaks will also cause corrosion.
