Flies Inside Tail Lights Mazda 3

I thought Hiace was the weapon of choice.

For the record, I have a Hiace too..

a white one..

Sadly, I couldn't find a tube smaller enough to do the job. Even if i find one, it is not easy to navigate the end of it inside the light. So I tried inserting a wire and loosen the flies stuck in the edges:

It is difficult to point the end of the wire to where I want to.

So as Hoonigan said, I'm gonna leave it as it is now. I removed most of the dead flies. Here's how it looks now:

Looks better than how it was before:

Have to do the other side as well.

Thanks everyone for the valuable ideas.

Those Flies look pale yellow colored. may be Japanese! so I see no issues having them there, original parts ne

Maybe the flies were buttered, Sampath. That's how they slipped in. It's like how some of our nangis (and mallis) on the roads these days slip into tight jeans. "galae butter gaala"

Bit late to the party but what comes to mind is that you could:

1. Use the thin air-line/ air tube and compressor from a fish tank to blow the flies out / manoeuvre them so you can suck them out with a vacuum. Those fish tank air tubes are pretty thin so you should be able to stick it right into the housing and dislodge the flies. If what you have on hand is too short, you can always buy a longer length as needed from any aquarium supply store.

2. Use one of those compressed air cans used on computer keyboards to manoeuvre the dead insects into a position where you can vacuum it out

3. Grab a camera lens cleaning attachment and use it to manoeuvre / blow the dead flies out.
