idle problems on a cold start

For about a minute after a cold start my engine revs itself looking for an idle, from about 1k to just under 2k repetitively. Driving a 1995 Ex. I know some of the most common problems would be a dirty IACV or messed up throttle position sensor. I'm looking for advice on how to figure out if either of these is the issue, I'm not much of a mechanic and only have basic tools at my disposal. I know both of these parts can be relatively easily removed without much technical knowledge, any advice on performing maintenance on them would be greatly appreciated.
