Angry BUGS

I'm having problems with flying insects being highly attracted to my car, particularly flies. They love to sit on it in an almost paralyzed state (they'll let me swat them with ease unlike if they were just flying around the house or something). The last 2 days I've been having problems with some flying beetles at home and at work. I've come out to my car completely covered in them and they refuse to leave and are quick to find a hiding spot unlike the flies.

Anyone with this problem have a solution? I might deet my car lol

I would look up a home remedy for getting rid of bugs. A Ziploc bag of water is supposed to keep flies away. (May need to put something else in the bag, I can't remember)

There is a lake near my job, so naturally a lot of bugs. I always come out to a TON of gnats or random other bugs doing just what you said to my car. Have to clean it every week because of them.

I actually think they are attracted to the paint lol

Honestly it sounds like theres a market for a product/wax that'll repel these **** bugs. Who wants to go into business with me?
