Yesterday there was an ant, crawling over my monitor, I was like no big deal right, just tap on it and remove it away from the screen and you know what, this evil was INSIDE my screen ! And now, there is a dead ant in my monitor hoping it fall down to the bottom of the screen, which is not( that's why I'm here bagging for help) and i have no idea to remove it. It looked like a dead pixel, which is annoying. I have tried tap the surround to try to move it, or using a suck cup also. But no use. Anyone have an idea ? I'm open to any suggestion tho. *Monitor: acer ed242qr

Just tap it bit by bit it will eventually drop or you can open your monitor just make sure it's out of warranty else it will be void.

Once an insect die and dried up stuck to something.. it will not fall down by itself anymore. I got lots of experience with dead insect stuck to my fullface helmet...
