I have a 35 mile commute one way, and I have had to stop halfway and clean bugs off my headlights before.

Last summer I was heading home from work and I drove through a damn swarm of those flying ant looking things. The fucking things were everywhere, immediately. I could feel the damn things crawling all over me and I was about to freak the hell out. Only thing I thought that I could do was to speed up. I found out real quick that around 90 or so those things turn to shit when they hit the sheild.

 I HATE love bugs. They make the biggest mess and they're everywhere! A 10 minute ride during love bug season always results in having to wipe off helmet, jacket, and the headlights. Grrr...!!!!

Love bugs you say?? I'll google that in a moment and let you know.
 Alls I know is when one would bust the shield, it would make a mess that looked like 10 flies had been blown up and the bug itself is hardly larger than a fly. Quote:

 Not so sure that these are them. I wiki'ed them and they seem to be more south of here but do inhabit the coastal areas of NC. ??? All's I know is I don't want to see anymore of those other suckers.
