I'm newish to AKL and haven't come across these before. Tan/Brown in colour, slightly raised and 3-5mm in diameter or oblong in shape, looks like some sort of insect shit! Car is parked outside and seem to appear overnite, each one needs to be washed off by hand. Can someone confirm what these spots are, cheers.
bee poo. probably getting dropped early morning. auckland is fairly well riddled with beehives these days.

You could be on flight path to nest so try moving car to different spot. I was told they “ bee line “ back to nest

Don’t use Auckland tap water to water your car. Or if you have to make sure you dry after washing. I found this with the hard water water up here. I was getting water marks on the paint work. I just use tank water now.

Not much you can do if you are on the bees flight path away from the hive. My daughter has several hives on her property and neighbour in a new build close to the north boundary complained of bee poo on house, car and washing last season. Hives were moved a couple of hundred metres at the end of the season and problem solved. Apparently they always leave in a direct north path flight path before beginning their search for food.
