Should you disavow backlinks even if your site spam score is 1%?

With a site spam score of 1% as indicated by Moz, is it worth the effort or necessary to disavow backlinks in Google?
Even at just 1%, could those spammy links still hurt a site's Google search rankings, even in the slightest of ways?
As it relates to disavowing backlinks, everything I read about is only related to sites with high spam scores. But what about sites with low spam scores?
I'm interested in best practices for dealing with spammy links, regardless of one's site spam score.
Thank you

Unless you're seeing a high volume of spammy links, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Every site is going to accumulate spammy links over time. It's just when there is a lot of them that they can lead to your site being negatively impacted. Unless you believe you're being penalized, I would leave it alone for now.
