Mazeman03

i noticed my mouse gets a lot of shit on it like fast. it's mostly the right mouse button the one i use the least but it gets a ton of gunk. i have to clean it daily.

 

i dont get why it's not like my hands are dirty. i mean im on a computer all day how dirty can they get.

Weird... is the space between the left and right big and easily attractable for dust?

Doesn't happen to me..

I don't have much problem with that. Clean hands (no food or anything) before using the PC and I only really clean it when I clean my desk as a "well I might as well do that too!"

Not a whole lot, I don't eat in front of the computer. And if I do, I make sure I don't leave gunk or use my dirty/oily fingers.

Not a lot right now. It used to be a lot with my old mouse as it had a lot of deep textures all around where gunk could easily stick and stay.

I don't get that much gunk or "dirt" on my mouse. But your least used mouse button might be getting diertiest because your finger isn't constantly moving over it to get rid of the dust. The oils and sweat from your fingers attract dust, and enough of it builds up and forms this "gunk" that you can later scrape off. On your right mouse button you finger isn't constantly swiping that dust off, so it builds up and builds up. Just clean your mouse regularly, or stop cleaning it at all and buy a new one in few months haha (if you need an excuse for an upgrade xD )
