Removing gDNA contamination from RNA seq data

Hello, I'm currently working on RNA seq analysis of bacteria, and I found my data is contaminated by genomic DNA (although I use DNAseI). I've tried using SeqMonk, but the result hasn't improved. Can anyone recommend another tool I could use for this purpose? I have a single-end result using rRNA depletion (which did not work well and I had to use Sortmerna to clean up the reads).

Based on random alignments across the genome outside of known exons? If not what are you basing that conclusion on?

You may want to try this package out: https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/gDNAx/inst/doc/gDNAx.html
