Eliminating & Cleaning Bugs on Front of Motorhome

[thepeddler]

Bug season is here and they are messy critters. How do you treat the front of your MH to help reduce the accumulation; and how do you clean them off?
Ours is a 2018 Coachmen Freelander 21RS MH
Thanks for your advise.

Scrubbing Bubbles Spray Bathroom Cleaner. In shade spray on, let sit for 5-10 minutes. The Bubbles loosen the dried gug butts and you can then brush them off. I use a bucket of soapy water (automotive car washing soap) and a soft brush on the end of a telescoping handle.
They will usually brush off with one application, and the Bubbles will not harm any paint or surface it gets on. Also, it will remove black streaks better than regular "black streak remover". Rinse off with hose.

Hello, I've been using this for the past year or so on the front of the RV. https://www.amazon.com/Bugs-All-Prof.../dp/B01AMJ5O22 It's concentrated, so the little bottle lasts a long time. Works really good - just let it set for awhile(in the shade), and it removes the bugs easily.

Spray the leading edges with Pam before your trip..

Bugs-B-Gone is an excellent product

Upflying, would you spray the PAM on the grill, front part of hood and bumpers? How about the extended vertical sides behind each cab door of the MH? Apparently this won't harm the paint? Thanks for your info. the peddler

Use bounce fabric softener sheets, just wet and use like a rag. Works great for love bugs

Bugs on front of camper? Stay out of Florida! LOL

I discovered unplanned how to easily clean bugs off... On a bike ride down to Panama City Beach my riding buddy's Harley had an oil issue and was producing a fine mist of oil that was covering my windshield and other bike parts, sunglasses included! I found the love bugs all over my bike as was expected... but the coat of oil enabled me to wipe them right off, then clean the bike of oil with Bug and Tar remover. I was chillin with a cold one while my bud was still working to get the love bugs off! So I put a thin coat of some heavy oil on front of truck and RV now to make bug removal easier.

I’ve used Bounce Sheets many tines to remove bugs. It has the added advantage of making the next blessing easier.

Right, and attached to my wife's Swiffer thingy for high reach.

I've tried numerous bug removers and found what worked best for me was just a generic Windex. Spray on let set for a minute and wipe off with a micro towel.
