Default Need Stook Bug Repellant

I dunno what it is about my yellow stook... Every time I get it all shined up and park it next to TrojanHorse's Red Stook, the gnats all flock out of his shrubs and park on my ride. Not one of course on his... go figure.

Eku,
That' is a problem with all yellow cars. Gnats and other flying insects are attracted to yellow. Other than painting it another color, I don't think there is much else you can do.

It's been so hot and dry here in Dallas that I noticed while washing mine over the weekend that the flies were landing on it and drinking the water!

A very disgusting site to have flies all over your car...
