There is no need to get rid of the itself key, just the key signatures
which are the "flood". The commands are --edit-key and then "clean" or
"minimize". It is a good idea to also set that operation to guard the
gate:

    keyserver-options import-clean

That and other protective settings are enabled by default in GnuPG
2.2.17.
