Theres an ant inside my monitor at first i thought its just crawling outside but when i try to remove it.  It died inside the Screen. Its kinda annoying special when im editing stuff.

I don't understand how an ant got in there, if its under your polarizing filter, you won't be able to get it out without ruining your monitor. If it's not under the filter, you might be in luck. Check on iFixit's website for a monitor teardown guide. I'm sorry man, I don't know what to say.

@Chatter_Box Thanks man will try that, at first its was crawling around when i try to removed it. Then it died there... i thought there is gap where it died since the ant can just move inside. Hope theres teardown guide there will check now.

 

@kelvinhall05 No idea man, i was surprise too.

You will have to take it apart.

I tried it but dont know how since i cant find where to start i check all sections of the monitor no luck... also im dont want to break it in the process so im kinda checking if someone have an experience disassembling this monitor.

Unscrew everything at the back, you will need to buy the ifixit pro tech tool kit as you will need to pop of the monitor bezel.

I checked the back and i cant find any screw to start with. I contact ASUS and they say i can bring it to a service center near in my location. if the cost is reasonable then i let them fix it.... xD Thanks guys
