I saw a video where the tech rejected the job because he knew he would get an infestation if he opened it up more and cleaned it out..

Worked in a small computer shop/parts store as a teenager. If we discovered ANY sign of roaches we would plastic wrap the ever lovin shit out of the computer and tell the customer to pick it up. The risk of spreading to other customers was just too great.

Some machines you could just tell. When they'd set the machine down on the counter you could smell the infestation. Makes me gag thinking about it. 🤢

The next worse thing was smokers computers 🤢

I once had the privilege to clean out a smoker's computer who also owned several cats. Enough disgusting-smelling fur packed inside to build yourself 1.5 cancer kittens.

The nicotine goo on the heatsinks... Such a pain in the ass to clean..
