RE: [OT] Bugs IN my screen

We get thousands of them every year - swarming. They cover everything and
get EVERYWHERE :( They crawl into the tightest of places as that's how they
live in the wild. They're called thrips or thunderflies etc. Once they've
crawled in, they tend to die so taking kit apart is often the only way to
get rid of them.

I've still got a couple behind the glass of an LCD TV here from years ago.
They also set off my alarm a few times 2 years ago before I sealed the PIR
detectors.

Paul.
