Who would have though and hopefully it's sorted for a while.

So I have one of these Logiteh G402 mice and it's awesome. It started giving issues with double clicking and not wanting to work properly. I searched the web for a while and came across this "solution" and tried it and it worked:-
DOUBLE CLICK ISSUE FIXED!!!
Issue: Whenever you click once the mouse registers a double click. It causes problem to drag and click.
FIX and EXPLANATION: This issue is caused by static electricity buildup inside your mouse (if the mouse isn't broken). To fix this, simply breathe into the gap between the mouse and the mouse button. Our breath has enough moisture to discharge the static electricity. This should help in removing the static electricity buildup. Generally when the environment is of low humidity or the buttons are clicked in rapid succession, static electricity tends to build up. This is a common problem in mouse since there's no other way for the static charge to be discharged.


Just though this might assist others.
 
I had the same double click issue with my G502. I came across a Reddit post suggesting to hit the mouse a few times with the palm of your hand. It worked and haven't had a problem since.
