Anyone know how to deter these little critters please?

We are trying to have a BBQ and being covered in tiny creepy crawlies is beyond irritating.

Don't use your Samsung monitor !

A couple of the critters managed to get inside mine and died. Apparently they are not designed to be insect proof! frown

It's ok if you have a phillips monitor as they consider it to be a fault and will replace it smile

The original meaning of the word 'bug' in computing circles came from your kind of experience. Bugs crawling in and fusing the electrics.

Oh, and half a byte is a 'nibble'.
