Bee Vomit/Poo removal

[Maserati Mario]

Hello all!
I've get these "yellow" spots on my car for the all the time!
I always thought they were from some "strange tree that followed me everywhere!"

Just found out, form Joe, they're Bee vomit/poo
So I'm just "picking" them off with my plastic razor blade
I took some kewl pics, thought you'd like to see them


A nice micro shoot

I'm not sure I ever wanted to know what bee poo looks like ... but now I do! Amazing the things one can learn here at MOL.

Well they say, A person should learn at least one new thing per day.

This definitely qualifies. Lol

That's what those yellow/green spots are? I just thought it was another form of bird dropping. Makes sense, I guess. I usually get those spots just after I wash the car and apply Last Touch and/or UQD. The bees are probably attracted to the scent of the chemicals.

Did Joe mention if bee vomit is as much an etching threat as bird droppings?

I can't say that I've ever noticed that before, and come to think of it, I'm kind of glad for that fact

Nice macro shot. I get those on my car all the time. I thought it's a type of tree sap too. I can't believe they're bug vomit b/c there's so much... Bugs need to stop puking.

As you can see from the last pic, no
Plus it is "Royal Jelly" which should contain bee's wax, so it's a wax base and not acid based, I'm assuming here, so you know what that means!

LOL!! As long as you don't extract samples from live bees. I'm sure they wouldn't too pleased and you might get you tongue stung!
