The example that is given I believe, is actual chametz, such as a sandwhich, that falls behind a barrel of wine.

We do move things out, but that is really just spring cleaning...I mean it is nice to do once a year...and what you can find!!!!

Right, you don't have to clean where your hand doesn't reach. We don't move the washer/dryer cuz it can break (along with some bones- it's HEAVY!)
The oven we don't move because of kabbala reasons.
The fridge we have moved in the old apt. We had to climb over it to get behind it!
This year we can just move it a drop and access it from the side.

I have a laptop so I can't change the keyboard.
This is the first year I have a computer in my house so I think I will buy this air can. I hope it will become clean because I sometimes eat when using it.
Could someone please tell me exactly how you use the air can.

I believe it's cherem d'rabeinu gershom, not to destroy an oven or put anything in its place. Similar to not closing up a doorway. Referring to a brick oven, I think.

to str:

First I shake out what I can from the keyboard.

Then, I use the air spray can by attaching the little plastic tube first. Then, I spray in short bursts (2 seconds). I spray from the least used areas (for me is the number pad) to the heavily used areas (the letter/number keys.)

Right, Squash. But DH doesn't want to move our non-brick oven for this reason, if we don't put it back properly... Well, less cleaning for me!
