Question Spring and bugs

It's about that time of year again here in the South. Bugs, bugs, and more bugs... What do you all suggest to clean bugs off the front of the bumper with instead of washing the car all the time? The car can be spotless, and in one 30 minute trip, bugs are all over the bumper... Any thoughts?

I wonder if 3M material makes it easier to clean the bumper off?

Does something slick like Zaino help?

i've heard that if you spray wd-40 anywhere on your car whenever bugs and such get on it all you have to do is rinse it off. notice i said i've only heard.

ZAINO !!!!! Bugs will wipe right off with a damp towl. I'd be afraid of using WD40 alot, don't know how that would affect paint on the plastic bumper over a period of time.
