Bug Removal...?

Hey guys,

I live in FL and well, Love Bugs are an xB's arch-nemesis..

What's the best "Bug Off" cleaner? I tried the new Rain-X spray on gel stuff and it didn't work that great. Just wondering if you guys have a preferred brand, etc.. Thanks!

Cheap and easy method.....Mix 1/4 ammonia to 3/4 water in a spray bottle...shake, spray, wait 2 min, wipe. Rinse and then repeat if needed.

I love being above the "Love Bug Line" !!!!! I do have to cross it sometimes when going to Albany and Valdosta GA. There is a Bug Remover that has wax in it at O'Reilly's. . The bottle is clear and the product is green. I can't remember the name though. It worked great on the love bugs though.

I was told by one of my scikotics members to try wd40 and a wet washcloth, and then wash the car, so I tried it and it works great, ill definitely be using it again, cause bug and tar remover takes off your wax shine job!!
