...place a bright light at the top of you monitor in the hope any insects will crawl towards it and leave from whence they came.

That's a good idea.

But what about the ones he already smushed?

There is a similar bug here that is harmless but looks like a chigger and I remember keeping it as a pet and playing with it as a 5 year old. It is named Bir Bahuti and when I saw the picture of chigger I thought that it was Bir Bahuti.

It is widespread throughout the sub-continent, and although it doesn't fly the English name is Lady Fly.

My advice would be not to squash any more buggers inside the screen as they stick to the screen and difficult to remove later.

Other alternative to keeping a bright light near the screen is to keep your system in bright sunlight near an open window inside your house (not outdoors again!) in a dry area for an hour or so.

I don't no why but its bugging me how it got between the screens when its all sealed

Why do you have to go outdoors to get an internet connection?

If you need to borrow a connection that isn't buggy you can go indoors to a Panera for the price of a bottomless cup of coffee or soda and great sandwiches..

Well, because I'm living waaaaayyyyyy out in the country and the nearest town is small and has no Paneras (I agree about the sandwiches). Outside because I'm living in a (seriously) a bulletproof trailer, I can't even get a cell phone signal inside and can see the tower. House-sitting for a friend and may be here the summer. Never lived in the country before and its kinda nice to tell you the truth.

@ carwiz :) *Blush* All I can say is that I was extremely worried about my machine and my motherboard.Just wasn't thinking. Not so much now as before since the bug has been identified and is not a spider. Was worried about webs inside my machine. Thanks to all who contributed and also ty for a few smiles from the comedians as we all can use an extra laugh these days. I'm going to mark this solved now.

Oh, kept my machine under a lamp last night and so far haven't seen anything today. Will do the same while working and this evening too.

Don't do that!!! You'll end up with a spot that is very distracting, take it from someone who knows! :)
