Default Bugs in the machine.

Would a bit of napthalene mothball keep spiders and other small creepy
crawlers out of the warmth of an always-on, so warm, bit of kit, or any
better ideas to keep bugs out of there.
Bose AWRC3G CD radio clock, started non playing of the odd CD then all
CDs failed to play.
Cleaning the lens, no difference, "Disc" in display, the same as with no
disc in there.
The whole unit was so full of fine spider web/cocoon silk? that you
could not see the components of the PA/PS area. Odd bits of insect stuff
around the optical unit. Removed the laser and lens unit from the
sledgeway and air dusted under the lens area. Blew out the PA/PS area
with 1kW blower.
Now playing all CDs thrown at it, cured?
I've twice previously come across bug cocoon/web actually inside the
space under the lens of CD units ,in the laser firing line, as the fault
cause.
