I assume LCD screens have to be open to the air because of atmospheric
pressure variation. So, why not sealed but with a small filtered air
inlet/oulet like hard disks ?

Interesting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrips
"Thrips are commonly known to invade modern LCD monitors and LCD
televisions.[1]"

I wonder if it might be the wavelength of light from the tubes that
attract them?
