I'm not used to these things and drove through a huge population of them yesterday. Can't even get all residue off with a pressure washer. Disgusting creatures.

Just make sure you wash that off immediately. The chemicals arent good for your paint

+3 on the bounce dryer sheets... wet them rub the bugs off and rinse. Doesn't even take much elbow grease. Works great. I always wax the surface after

North LA is currently experiencing a plague of Love Bugs

Geaux Clean car wash did the trick for me.
