Thanks guys. There are some good suggestions above and I've already ordered some bug cleaning spray and will try that with a low pressure water spray. Brushes (and wire - yikes!) aren't an option here (rad and oil coolers are well back from the plastic grills) unless I remove the plastic grills and I'm not going to try that. Even with the plastic grills removed, I'd be worried about bending the flanges / fins using a brush.
One of the issues with spraying water at the bugs (I'm using a garden hose, so not high pressure) is that the spray just drives the bugs deeper into the flanges / fins of the rads. It washes out some of them, but not all and not the big ones. I know this might seem a little obsessive, but there is so much exposed rad / cooler area and the black grills have large openings so the bugs really show.
