I have noticed that bug splats on my windshield and poached egg residue in 
the stainless steel pan are difficult to remove.  Why are these so hard to 
remove?  I suspect that it has something to do with the protein in the 
bugs/eggs but I am not sure.  Is there something I can use to "melt" the 
bugs and or eggs?  Or am I stuck scrubbing?
