Do they stick to the ENTIRE car? I'm trying to think of some way to drive around in a huge plastic bag.



It's not too bad. I have read that the love-bugs-damage-the-paint thing is a myth. But you wouldn't want them to turn to cement on your car. I don't think golf carts go fast enough to be a problem. Anybody? (We don't have a cart.)
