I think that you could use a pop filter, but the 'need' is minimal.
I did purchase a pop filter and find that it does provide a quality that adds to the recording.
The mic itself is such a dream, you may find that it may not be necessary for you and how you speak.
Good luck and enjoy!

In my experience, even mics that claim to have a built-in pop filter still let plosives through. Either that or they have no low-end response anyway, and that's not necessarily a solution.
