Default Safe radiator bug screen mesh size?
I live in agricultural countryside and a 30 minute drive leaves my radiator so full of bugs I think by the end of summer it just won't cool any longer. Is there a way to remove them without pushing them into the radiator or damaging the fins?

I've read the forum articles on putting up a screen in front of the radiator but does anyone know how fine a mesh will still not impede decent airflow to the radiator?

Thanks!

Dirk
