You're working away, minding your own business, when suddenly... a tiny, six-legged horror scurries across your computer screen. But wait, it's *inside* the screen! What do you do?
First, don't panic. While disturbing, this isn't usually a sign of a bigger computer problem. Insects are attracted to the warmth and light of your display, and sometimes find their way in through tiny gaps in the bezel.
Unfortunately, there's no easy 'delete' button for this situation. Applying pressure to the screen to squash the bug is a definite no-no! You risk permanent damage to the LCD.
The best course of action is often patience. Turn off your computer and leave it in a dark room. The insect may be drawn to the darkness and find its own way out. You can also try gently tilting the screen, hoping gravity will help.
If the insect dies inside, you might have to live with a tiny, permanent resident. Disassembling the screen is possible, but risky and often best left to professionals. So, dim the lights, be patient, and hope your uninvited guest makes a swift exit!
