Okay so I'm sitting here using my laptop and I've had a little tiny roach crawl out and an ant. At least I think they did it's possible that they were already in this room but I'm not sure. So if I do have bugs in the laptop how do I get rid of them without ruining the damn thing?

I would like to put something clever and about me but I fear my company will find it

    Your laptop owner's manual should have a section on how to safely open the chassis.

    Open it up, blast it out with some compressed air, check behind the battery, check in the disc drive, etc.
    Chances are, they don't live in your system, as it gets way too hot for them.

    Nothing wrong with a good clening though!

    Only do that if it doesn't void your warranty.
