I think, on average, for every fridge compressor I have pulled out, I have found one dead mouse beside it...
Found a dead mouse wrapped around the fan in the back of a oven once, funnyly, I knew its last owner. LoL.
And with computers & their power supply's, I always give the dust inside them a good spray of a mix of detergent/kitchen cleaner/alcohol as soon as I open it. When I did a bunch of power supply's I just dunked each one into a bucket of warm soapy water before starting on them.
I figure that dust inside represents evey single mold spore, cigarette smoke, cold & flu germs & bacteria that's ever been in the rooms its been in in its lifetime.
I can 'feel it' if I don't wash them first, sore eyes, short of breath, headaches.
