Default Cicadas this year

Everyone in Maryland, and I don't know how far they reach, I hear we get to look forward to cicadas this year, they say 10,000 per acre on average. I am hoping to get a few extra coats of wax to make it easier to clean them off, Gary any suggestions? or any secrets?
Thanks,
Tom

Keep the car in the garage when not using, apply a synthetic sealant, keep it washed regularly, and don't open your sun roof!

Might be a good idea to get a nose bar, the kind with a mesh screen across the grille, use it during the time the cicadas are around.

IRPT, I think you meant a nose bra!!! I went on line and searched when I got the PT, got a WOLF bra for about $80. The one I got covers much of the hood, not just the nose. Have been using it as "LOVE-BUG" season is upon us, when it warms up to 80.

Hooligan, you are correct, my typing is dyslexic this morning.
