Twice a year, I absolutely hate living in Florida. Every 6 months these little flying bags of acid come around, obscuring windshields and destroying paint. :mad:

Damn it . Is there something that you can spray on there to make them love bugs come off easier ?
Double damn........imagine getting splattered while doing the mombo ? Whatta way to go !

After I began using Zaino the bugs that didn't slide off while driving washed off with very little effort ... I was actually surprised that it helped that much but I have driven through S. Georgia & Florida during "mating" season and those bugs are just terrible ... but seriously, they washed right off. I would think any good wax or other treatment would have similar results.

The love bug's must do a good job of clogging up the front air stack.

yeah, I've heard some folks spray Pam on the front bumper this time of year, I may give it a try.

As a group, they go out with a bang, you could say.

Yah, I was considering that today. Not that I have any cooling issues, but it's probably reasonable to at least attempt to clean the stack without disassembly, after each swarming season.

I use simple green to loosen the bugs off the car when I get home - 15-20 minutes of soaking, and then a soft brush takes 'em right off. I suppose for a more pristine car, I'd be more anal, but the front bumper cover needs paint anyway :)

Yeah, simple green doesn't taste very good, I wouldn't want to have to get these little f-ers out of my teeth!

Pledge works wonders and smells good too. Let it sit for a minute the wipe off. It's an old Harley trick. Works wonders on fiberglass.

pam sounds good...how about rain-x on paint? maybe those removable plastic sheets moto cross racers have on their visors?

Yes pam works. They wipe right off. But if you forget to spray pam the coca cola works great getting them off. The carbonation eats them off. June bugs are even worse. They are allot bigger and they will do damage to the paint on the nose.

I thought the worst of it was over for this season, but today I was proven very wrong:
