Question Rusty spokes

Hi guys,

I have just discovered some early spots of rust on my XTR spokes on both wheels. I have not ridden the bike during he winter or salty conditions so that surprises me.
Can someone recommend a remedy?
One, the most obvious, would be to change for stainless steel ones - OK any source to recommend apart of OTR?
Treatment with some coating?

Cheers.
