I'd press on them to try to unstick them, but I can't reach. Can we try cycling day and night really fast?
XKCD at it's best...

If it's still under warranty and you keep getting them you can send it back... otherwise, there's nothing you can do.

Sorry.

I've seen dead pixels brought back a bit of gentle massage, even if only temporarily.

Gently rub the screen around the dead pixel with clean fingertip in a circular motion - dont press too hard. Might work, might not. No responsibility taken for further killage of pixels if too heavy-handed.

Good luck.
