simple green is a degreaser. getting rid of love bugs - there is no grease. its a hardened fat that dries up. what you need is a liquid softener

I have heard the dryer sheet thing several times. My buddy at work swears by it.

I have found that the best way to get them off is just to leave the car parked during this time.

Be careful of that pressure washer. I blew the paint off my 96 convertible front bumper with one.
