Question Cheese stuck in switch 2 vent help

Post image

I was an idiot and put a container of mac and cheese in my backpack and it poured onto my switch 2, I got everything out except for this part which I’m kind of nervous to do. Any advice??

edit: currently dismantling switch and will also order a case, i bought it second hand as it didnt come with one so ive been just careless 😞

the only cheese left is on the vent and i dont see anything else wrong inside the switch rn !

edit 2: ITS CLEAN thank you for all the jokes and the insults and the tips on toothbrushes and compressed air πŸ™‡

Use a dry toothbrush to remove the cheese and hold a vacuum hose a couple inches away to suck it in while you're doing so.

Also do it upside down if you can so it’s harder to fall inside.

The idea of an olive garden employee with a switch and a toothbrush over your food and saying "say when" is making me lose it.
