Default mesh jackets/pants

How do you guys care for your mesh jackets and or pants? I have the Harley 360 suit and I'm wondering the best way to take the bugs off after a days riding. Also wondering if you just throw it in the wash every now and then or what... Thanks for any help.

I have 1st Gear and Rev It mesh. I just toss it in the wash machine gentle cycle and hang dry. Never been a problem. Not like it washes off the rain repellent.

Usually the cleaning instructions are sewn on the inside. Gently wash, and air dry. No dryers. Pretty simple.
