Bug Problem

    Hey, about 3 days ago I was working away on my laptop when I noticed bits of dust moving around on my screen and keyboard. On closer inspection they turned out to be tiny little bugs. At first glance they just look like specs of dust and I hadn't noticed. Wondering how the feck they could have gotten into my laptop (mainly under the keyboard) I checked my laptop bag... loads of em in there :eek: so I threw that out back straight away. I took the hoover to my laptop and just to be sure I cleaned out my room (hoovered floor, washed bed sheets etc.). I normally don't mind little insects about the place but the number of these guys worried me. Anyway, the point of this thread.... Got back today at lunch and noticed a few of the same little feckers on my laptop screen and the desk my laptop was on. I'd obviously missed a few of em. I'll have another go with the hoover later but I'm worried I'll miss some again and they'll keep coming back (in bigger numbers). Anyone have any advise on how to get rid of these little pests. I think it originated in my laptop bag which is now gone but I don't want em finding their way to my bed and setting up camp there. :(

    The only sure way is to drown the little ****ers. Just throw your laptop in the bath. :v:

    Seriously though if they're under the keyboard then they're probably through the whole inside of the laptop, so hoover wont do much good. Might have to try some kinda spray (carefully obviously).
