What do you do to your mouses to make them fail so quickly? Are you throwing them randomly accross the room?

Actually using the middle click button regularly.
Some Logitech mouse switches have been known to fail in normal use.
At least one person has put together a good overview of what they think is happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5BhECVlKJA (details in video description)
They just fail. Particularly the office mice don't last very long for gaming (orders of magnitude more travel and clicks)
I use an MX Master for gaming and it's been going strong for years.
Use cats. For all great Logi ergonomics, they fall prey to cat hair; and pads cover the screws, so they can't be reassembled pristine after cleaning. Still, M500s is the best.
Pads over screws seem to be common for pretty much all mice. At least pads can be replaced easily and cheaply, unlike crap switches or wheel encoders.
