I noticed that my mouse wheel when scrolling up would sometimes scroll down instead (and vice versa). I figured it’s probably because there is some dirt and grime inside the mouse wheel casing that’s somehow interfering with the sensor.

How can I clean it without taking the mouse apart? I guess I could fill it with some isopropyl alcohol and wait a bit to shake it out or something but I don’t know how well that would work and I don’t want to make it worse obviously.

Does anyone have a better idea maybe? It’s a Logitech G703 Lightspeed

      There’s nothing wrong with getting liquid in it so long as it’s dry before being plugged in.

      You could wash your computer’s motherboard with soap and water, and it would be fine as long as you pulled the CMOS battery beforehand.
