Bugs!!?!!?!!!?!!?

Snows gone,grass is green,and the bugs are back
Because I have a 100 mile daily commute,I get major bug splats.
I keep the car waxed and detail polished.
The bug remover products seem kind of harsh,so I don't use them.

For the windsheild I used to use bug windsheild washer fluid in a spray bottle,it's cheap by the gallon,but does not work that well.
I have a bottle of Eagle 20/20 glass cleaner,it works better,cleans the bugs off easy,and wipes clear quickly.Will this stuff hurt plastic,can I use it on the black A pillars,headlights?Will it hurt the leading edge of my white roof?

Now on to the bonnet,front bumper.Detail polish does work,but I have to do this every day,and it uses up alot of product.Is there a product that will clean but not hurt the finnish?

I don't mind spending the time,just looking for the best products,ways of doing this daily time I spend with my MINI
