I used to use dryer sheets on my motorcycle windshield. Saved them from the laundry, tossed them in a zip-loc baggie, and kept them in the bike luggage. Just get one moderately damp and go to town on the bugs. They wipe off with minimal effort. Wipe dry with a microfiber towel.

I just smear undiluted car was soap on the area and let it sit for 10 minutes. The soap does not harm the paint and it (mostly) washes off with a spray.
