The best way I have found to remove dried up dead bugs from your car is to use a little saliva. Yes, you read correctly. Spit on your car. The active, live digestive enzymes in your saliva do a fantastic job of eating through bug jerky with no abrasion to your paint. You spit on the bug, let it sit for about 15 seconds and rub gently with a soft cloth. It is simply amazing at how easily the dried up goop just glides away.

Then use a quick detailer because the idea that you just spit on your car is pretty disgusting too!!

Default Might as well just lick the bug splats then. :-)

Get your car clean and some free protein in one fell swoop.

Default Just remember

Mom's use spit for cleaning babies - gentle enough for kids, tough enough for bugs!

If I ever see your car, I'll be sure to hawk a big one on it. jk
