Hi all.
Today I finished the assemble of a new PC for the first time of my life, and luckily so far it works perfectly. My concern is that when I was cleaning some dirt that was made from the black screws of the case a very small piece of kitchen paper fell somewhere behind the motherboard and close to the side of the graphics card. I can't see it and I can't remove it unless I risk to blow some air and if I get lucky to make it drop down OR remove the motherboard from the case (both makes me panic). If i leave this evil paper piece and forget it, is there any chance it will create any problems in long term? Please tell me what you guys think? Sorry I know it sounds stupid but my brain can't stop thinking about it. Thank you!
 
Solution
If it doesn't get wet it's good insulator and most MBs are coated with lacquer so it takes mechanical force to get to bare contacts which paper tissue can't do.

Good idea but didn't worked. Is stuck somewhere and still I can't see it. Thanks, that should work in 90% of the cases.

The paper was dry and I don't see a way for it to get wet. Anyway I will have to clean the computer sooner or later so it will be good opportunity to try an air canister. I will forget it till then. Thanks I pick this as solution because I learned something too.
