I had a microwave this one time from a pub, there was a huntsman living between the outer glass of the door and the metal door frame.
My job was to extract the huntsman without harming it and leave the microwave in working order. Sure was a tense few minutes separating the parts of the door when I couldn't see the spider.
Ended up all working out. I gave the microwave and the huntsman in a now more friendly enclosure back to the customer.
I also had several microwaves with mice infestation, the most memorable being one that somehow got into the cooling fan either when it was running or it was just sitting there when it was started. Unfortunately for it, it grabbed onto both coil terminals and died an unpleasant death.
Also had a big TV which had the speaker cables attached to the underside of the back case. When disassembling it, it necessitated reaching under the case and undoing the cable clips. Once I had them undone I lifted the back off the TV and saw a fat redback and its web right next to where my hand was.
I service many automatic machines, they're often full of sugar and greasy muck. I mean, if you spend upwards of $1000 on an appliance, why would you let it get into such a state. The customers are always pleased at how new the machines look once I'm done. Despite my advice on basic maintenance and cleaning, I fear that most will end up back in the same condition. More work for me I guess.
