Default Odd wiper/washer problem...

Whenever I use my windsheild wipers, it turns on the washer pumps too. So whenever my wipers are on, its spraying washer fluid everywhere lol. Any ideas?

These cars have windshield wipers?
The switch would be my guess, but just a guess.

Well I usually dont drive in the rain, but I accidently hit the wiper switch when I was turning the other day, then I had to clean all of the washer fluid residue spots off my windsheild. I'm half tempted to just unplug the pump since I never use the washers anyway, but I would like to fix the problem correctly if possible.

Now the pump sprays whenever it wants! I'm coming to a stop sign, and my washer pump sprays out the rest of my fluid for no reason, wtf!
