    If this had happened to me I would have used the microwave as well ....Oh but wait, I have bugs living in my microwave LCD screen as well!
    Truly, I did have a few bugs about half a centimetre in length living in my microwave LCD screen - must have been an import. They eventually died after a few months. It was most annoying when trying to read the screen.

    Errr ... Pentax weather sealing also keeps out bugs

    Don't put electronic gear in a microwave !

    Fly spray near plastic? No way!

    The mothball idea.. ok.

    I'm really worried about copyright and that the bug will take better photos than me

    Visit someones grandma..... all grandmas have mothballs, even if the shops haven't sold them for 30+ years ... I'm sure they still have them or grandmas wouldn't smell like mothballs

    you could put a grandma in a plastic bag with the D3, close it up nicely and check in the morning

    I had the same problem with a Canon film SLR, I put the camera in the fridge for a day or so and it seemed to fix the problem, can't say where the bugs went but they disappeared.

    Did the food disappear as well?

    I read somewhere the best way to solve bug problems is by dipping the D3 into liquid nitrogen for 5.76 seconds.

    hmm, well, used the camear today, no sign of the bug, but on the inside of what I assume is protective glass the little footmarks have left annoying spidering
