I recommened keeping some waterless wash and a microfibre towel in your glovebox and just spot-cleanging the birdshit off as it appears.

This happens to my bike all the time. Fucking black paint as well so dust shows up even more.

I'll one up you. After I finished claying, waxing and what not, it stormed all week. Stormed this week too, but I said fuck it, I'm gonna wash it this week anyway.

I just shoot any bird that's considered a pest animal.

Works pretty well in keeping shit off my car. I haven't had gulls near my house in months.

I've got a bag in the trunk with MF towels and some Quick detailer for stuff like that, but I won't even notice the crap till I get home.

15 deg north here. It is mango and plum season pollen is minimal.

In fact pollen is minimal 365 days a year so I don't know what you are talking about.
