Sure to offend bird lovers, but that is what small weapons are for...

I had the same problem for some time, then placed a plastic owl nearby and... problem solved.

I just moved it around once in a while, but now those birds no longer dive bomb my vehicles.

Hey, just be happy they're doing it on your car and not on you.

Unfortunately, I know from experience.

Use this immediately
My experience was: never just remove it with water and cloth. Produce scratch mark very easily, especially on black cars.

I always spray this Bug & Tar Remover http://www.turtlewax.com/main.taf?p=2,1,4,11 on it, and let the gel stay on it for at least a minute or two. It will actually seperate the whatever from the paint, so just spary it with a powerful hose will remove it.
