display has an insect

All of a sudden my IMac had an insect in the display. Is there anything that can be done? I have an IMac 2017 with 5K display 27".

Small horizontal lines displaying in my 2021 24-inch iMac My iMac's screen is suddenly showing small horizon lines that occupy half of the screen. There is no any physical damage to the screen and the iMac stays where it is since I bought it in 2021. Has anyone else experienced a similar screen problem? I've been a Mac user for a decade and it's my first time experiencing this problem.

bugs behind glass on 2019 Mac I've seen a couple of posts on here but they were quite old so thought I would ask again. Over the last week 4 x small thunder bugs have somehow made their way behind the glass of my 27" 2019 iMac and have died. If I am correct unlike my previous older model, the glass cannot be removed on the newer model. Is there in fact a way to remove it the glass, or is there anything I can do? The bugs are not loose enough to move if I shake or tap the screen, and I have tried vacuuming back through the vents and memory slots without success.

Hazy spot on macbook pro mid 2012 screen About a month ago a tiny hazy spot started to appear on the screen of my mid 2012 macbook pro version 10.14.1 and now it’s gotten bigger. Changing the display color did nothing. I mostly use it for video editing and drawing using wacom. Is this a software or hardware problem? Anybody ever had this problem before? Please help!

You need to have the iMac looked at by an "Apple Authorized Service Provider" and then decide what to do.
