The Bugs are disgusting, but an exploded bird is even worse. Luckily, no damage, but it took a while to get off, especially since I was on the road at the time and couldn't pull into a car wash until the next day

Add the great Sacramento valleys to the list of canidates for "Bug Capitol" of the world! This valley is often referred to as the bread basket of the Country. Bugs love the bread basket! LOL!

A strong hose spray & "Splatt" Bug remover is what I use.

Bugs probably stick so well because they usually have a fairly high acidic content in their digestive systems. So it probably works alot like bird poop on paint. Eats thru the wax barrier.

PPW has to be the worst color to have when it comes to dead bugs sticking to the front bumper cover! I usually blast them with some spray detailer and wipe 'em off with a microfiber towel.

i feel everyone's pain. It is unavoidablle. I should have taken pics after my 140 mph pulls to show you how a bug can REALLY splatter!!! I am particularly fond of the ones that look almost like a paintball hit it

What it the last thing that goes through a bug's mind when it hits your front bumper?

IT'S A** hole!
