They seem to be breeding around my Jeeps - Big Green ones! Never seen them this bad before! Must have something to do with the global warmng / climate change stuff.

Happy Holidays to All.

Do they sat TDI on the back? Those are hard to catch, they never seem to stop for fuel...

they may make good ramps if they were parked next to each other...

A Neutral Drop in Reverse at full throttle should keep em away for a moderate time. May hafta repeat every 2 months as needed....depending on turnaround time at the authorized VW collision center.......

Just use them to practice crawling.:bluelaugh:

Looks like you need the super giant oversize No-Pest strips--2 of'em at least. I've used moth balls and moth crystals to keep small rodents a bugs out of Jeeps I've had parked "in storage" particularly in heater boxes. but I doubt it'd work on those green bugs unless you could fill them up with the moth balls and that might cause some unintended after-effects.

2 things.

1)- get cats. They keep the rodent population down. They dont work on spiders, but anything else that crawls....

2)- Fill every parking spot with Jeeps to help limit the bugs spreading...:D

Why not sell the baby Jeep with 2 Bugs as a package deal? Problem solved.

Now use the cash and fill the empty spaces with FSJs.

I didn't know that green bug would look terrible!! Ack!!

Thanks for the suggested solutions, guys. We had some great laughs reading them. My wife especially loved the Starbucks one. (the VW's actually belong to her)

I'm taking your advice and working hard on my son's J-4000 today to try and get it finished by spring so we can fill one more space in that driveway before more bugs appear.

Happy New Year!

Maybe you should get a giant bug zapper.

They have one....its called "your local VW dealer". Only seems to work on wallets though.
