Tacho bug

Athame57:
I've had a wasp in my helmet a few times and a spate of grasshoppers hitching a ride all summer once, but now  a new one.
I have a Ladybird residing in my tachometer, I'll try to get a pic. It keeps crawling around the face of it while under way, the needle passes over it so it isn't getting hurt but it is a damn distraction!  :o I thought these things were supposed to be sealed units? Anyone got a suggestion, please don't mention insecticide!

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I suspect the bulb holder is the easy way in, especially if the boot has deteriorated.

K2-K6:
You're going to need a spider, JIS standard too :)

Could trun into a "I knew an old lady that swallowed a fly" fable though.

exvalvesetdabbler:
No spiders, I had one set up home in my Speedo when it was off the bike.

How about a match stick, a couple of inches of thread with a couple of greenfly on the end. Then dangle it near the hole and wait.

Best outcome is if it expires, falls to the bottom and gets captured by some stray grease.

Dave
