Post Cleaning Glass, hurting good guys

Just a quick question,
Does anyone worry about killing all of the bugs, and other life, that resides on the glass of the tank when they have to clean it of algaes, or other films?
I almost don't like cleaning the glass because I feel that I am going to wipe out all of the good guys.

Try cleaning the glass when u have they highest amount of light on.. There should be the least amount of pods (bugs) on your glass.. Besides.. Algea is the only reason why they are there...

I don't think you could ever wipe them all out by cleaning the glass. Keep cleaning the glassand don't worry about the little critters.
