Living by lake Erie some months are terrible.I use Lloyds bug remover after a ride.They say peroxide and water works 50/50.I've thought about a fine Pam spray before a ride.Pledge before and after helps alot.

 

It don't matter around here.Their season is short and they have a lot of breeding to do.

 

My windshield!!!!

 

It may be short, but it's UGLY! I spent two weeks near Bangor one June, and the black flies and mosquitoes nearly sucked me dry.

 

I've seen larger ones that look like they are kamakazing the headlight

 

Amber lensed goggles, apparently...

 

I don't think they have a preference. Light is Light, they see it, they go for it

 

I spray my entire bike with "OFF" bug repellent each time I get ready to ride, haven't had a bug come near it since.

 

never thought of tryin that

 

Don't know about the headlights but those damn crest white strips sure bring them in.
