The dark matter (DM) blind spots in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model(MSSM) refer to the parameter regions where the couplings of the DM particlesto the $Z$-boson or the Higgs boson are almost zero, leading to vanishinglysmall signals for the DM direct detections. In this paper, we carry outcomprehensive analyses for the DM searches under the blind-spot scenarios inMSSM. Guided by the requirement of acceptable DM relic abundance, we explorethe complementary coverage for the theory parameters at the LHC, the projectionfor the future underground DM direct searches, and the indirect searches fromthe relic DM annihilation into photons and neutrinos. We find that (i) thespin-independent (SI) blind spots may be rescued by the spin-dependent (SD)direct detection in the future underground experiments, and possibly by theindirect DM detections from IceCube and SuperK neutrino experiments; (ii) thedetection of gamma rays from Fermi-LAT may not reach the desirable sensitivityfor searching for the DM blind-spot regions; (iii) the SUSY searches at the LHCwill substantially extend the discovery region for the blind-spot parameters.The dark matter blind spots thus may be unblinded with the collective effortsin future DM searches.
