I have had this Prestone Bug Wash in my washer fluid reservoir for a few days now and I really like it. I recently moved to the coast of southern Georgia, where there are a lot of bugs. I was used to a lot of bugs having lived in rural Pennsylvania and Maryland, but some of the bugs down here are...messier...for whatever reason. I also park under trees at the house and the office, and with the higher consistent temperatures, sap has become a real issue. I have noticed already that this bug wash does a great job of getting the sap off the windshield where the typical blue stuff I had been using tended to smear or do nothing to the windshield. This bug wash gets it all off as far as I can tell.
I am ordering another bottle for my wife's minivan!
Note: I was completely out of washer fluid when I put this in, so I am using it full strength right out of the bottle. I cannot speak to its effectiveness if it is mixed with other washer fluids or water.
Update 11.11.13
I have used an entire reservoir on my car since I bought the first bottle, and I am buying more to replace it. It continues to work well in getting off the sap and the bugs. There are some drops of sap from a large pine tree in our yard that take a few tries to get off because they are so thick, but this Prestone Bug Wash does the trick. I did add it to my wife's minivan after my initial review, topping off her tank, which had about a 1/4 of a reservoir left of the "blue" stuff. It works well on the van, even diluted with normal washer fluid. I still highly recommend this washer fluid if you are dealing with tree sap. It works on bugs too, but I've noticed it more on the sap.
