I use Caig Deoxit on the switches and controls of my audio components etc. it might be worth a try also. 🙂
 
The WD40 doesn't clean it, but maybe my toothbrush is not good enough.
However, I would be happy just if it stops the reaction. How often do I need to reapply it ?

Any and all electronic professionals use it and swear by it.

Can WD40 do the job if I spray a large amount of it ? Is it safe ? I hear it's dangerous to plastics.

I told you to read up on it. Don't use a "large amount". It's a petroleum distillate that stops corrosion, and coats & lubricates. It is not harmful to plastics, but will impede/stop corrosion.
