.. Next time, do this: hold the lens FIRMLY, mount side away from you, and
rotate your arm at the shoulder. The resulting force should throw away the
little animal.
I wouldn't try to kill it within the lens, since its disintegrating body
will be all over the place.
Try attracting it outside by placing it in a room with a strong light and
leaving it alone.
Maybe a vaccum cleaner?
