[Chevelle-list] What to do about bugs. (insects smashed on the car)

[Rich Pruett]

Years ago, I lived in Florida and every year, in the fall, we had a problem with "Love bugs". The story is that these guys, about the size of lightning bugs, were mating and were attracted to the exhaust fumes so they were flying around, stuck together, near the roads. There were hundreds of thousands to be seen and hit. 

People did two things to protect there cars. You could buy a net fitted like an oversized ping-pong net for the front of your car to protect your paint and radiator from the acid "bug juice". Also some people used sprayed Pam on the front areas that would be hit to protect their paint.   

Hope this is helpful
