Yeah my celi is white that there are always a ton of flies on my car.
Also I've been having a huge problem with birds...not them crapping on it but them flying into it!! The first day I got my car a birs flew into it when I was driving it. It's happened a couple other times too. They just won't get out of the way!!

maybe yellow reflects UV light somehow because many bug see in UV light This is the actual reason why they flock to yellow. Certain bees and other insects see a different color spectrum than the human eye sees. Instead of the usualy ROYGBIV wavelengths that we can only see, certain insects can see wavelengths with a higher frequency (UV rays), and thus enables them to find their food. As a result, they can't see most of our color spectrum (red, orange, YELLOW, green) but their eyes pick up the UV light and they zoom in checking to see if it's food.
