IF your microwave has been flashing at you recently you should hope it’s not for the same shocking reason one Reddit user discovered.
A Redditor posted a skin-crawling video of a flashing microwave that will make you want to clean your kitchen.

The video was posted to the popular Reddit thread r/Wellthatsucks by a user called SatynMalanaphy.
It’s captioned: “Tried to use the microwave at a friend’s place, and saw the numbers blinking so took a closer look…..”
At first, the microwave just looks very greasy.
However, as the video zooms in on the microwave’s digital timer it reveals dozens of tiny insect crawling inside the microwave and over the timer.
This is causing the light of the timer to flash like it’s going on and off.
There’s some speculation that the insects are cockroaches.

One of the insects can even be seen running on the outside of the greasy device.
The Reddit post has around 2,500 comments and some people are even claiming to have the same thing happen to them.
One Reddit user wrote: “This happened in a s***** college apartment I lived in last year. There were cockroaches inside the timer in the oven and microwave.
“One night I came to the kitchen to get a glass of water after waking up parched, flipped on the light and there were cockroaches lining all four walls of the kitchen, on every cabinet, on the sink, fridge, stove, everywhere.
“Probably a good hundred or so. After three visits from exterminators they were still there every night. Got out as soon as I could.”
Another Reddit user joked: “I would just burn it all to the ground tbh.”
