Worlds greatest bug remover

WOW!!!! I don't usually get excited about endorsing a product BUT....

I've discovered the WORLD'S GREATEST BUG REMOVAL PRODUCT!!!! It's called Premium Bug Blast made by Thetford....

It's absolutely amazing.... I discovered it in one of my basement compartments. (Evidently I bought it some time ago and put it there and forgot all about it)

It completely removes baked on bugs with very little effort... My wife's black Ford Edge had baked on bugs that I've tried everything on over and over with no luck... I was able to remove the surface bug but the baked-on outline always remained...

On shot of this product and a small amount of rubbing with a soft cloth and it's all gone!!!! Car looks new - not four years old... The same can be said for all the bugs on my coach....

Guys I'm telling you - get some of this stuff... It's amazing!!!'

Hand sanitizer. Takes some scrubbing, but it works!

The cheapest and most effective bug remover i have use is used or unused dryer sheets. Used ones are free and it works with little effort.

I agree with the dryer sheetsfor bugs. Got bounce in my shop for this purpose. Hesitated to mention, but used them during "love bug" season for years! If you can reach, they work great campers too!

A Thetford product you can by at Dollar General?? Amazing....Thetford is the great company that made my $1500 **** pot (macerating toilet).

Hey, to the person who mentioned "love bugs".... The story that goes around Florida is that the bugs were genetically engineered (as an experiment of some sort) at the University of Florida many years ago, and a few hundred were accidentally let go; that's the story anyhow.....

For those that have never seen or heard of them, you will NEVER see them flying around singly..... They are ALWAYS joined; hence their name.

Boowho??

Coke, works on fresh bugs at the car wash. Brushes remove the loosened bugs and the Coke.

Vince, the abrasives are why I hesitated mentioning dryer sheets, but we've used bounce sheets for years! Literally! No discoloration or marring noted. Don't know why they work, but they do! I use them on my windshields. They leave a residue similar to rain-x.

I agree with the funny... I buy stuff and discover or re-discover it all the time. I will be like ohhh yeahhh... I forgot i had that.... 50+... no mind left. 35 years in customer service will do that to you.

Good one!!!

At my age in life, I've heard so many that it's hard to find 'new' material.

Here are three of my favorites; having been a trucker for a few years, a lot of those type of things come from the guys; they can be very creative.

Anyhow.....

TS hookers..... Horizontal Highways Hostesses
What they can give you..... Sabre Toothed Crotch Crickets
Toilet Paper....... Moon Floss
