sucking the bugs out

[Peter Ha]

Hey folks,
The other day I opened the vent for 1st time since it became sunny during flight and bunch of dead bees fell out the vent. This got me wondering do bugs get caught inside vents, stall-horn and other holes? How do you clean them out? Do you use a shop vacuum?

I would avoid using a shopvac directly on a stall warning opening. It is designed for a vacuum, but probably not that much vacuum. Perhaps cupping the end of the hose in your hand and approaching it indirectly may be enough without potentially causing damage to the reed.
