Default CCV or ICV, other valves/vents to clean?

My 2006 is at 106K and I am current on all maintance. Its been really cold lately 5-20 degrees F.

I am not happy with my mileage and idle recently so I am going to hit the easy things. Triple check the tire pressure and swap out the spark plugs.

Are there any vents that would benefit from a quick shot of carb cleaner?

In the past I have had vehicles that really junked up their idle control valves and popping off two hoses and a quick shot of carb cleaner really helped the idle.

Anything similar I should clean/replace on this engine?
