Does your city spray for mosquitoes? I get this all the time from mosquito spray in our city.
They are not aphids. Aphids DO leave a sticky substance on your plants, but there are no aphids present and they don't just go away for the day, lol!
The plants are all in the house now and none have the spots anymore. I think it was something sticky from the atmosphere, but at least it's gone.
Sap or sap-like pollen that is released from nearby trees. I have ornamental pear trees and they are really bad for this in the summer. Also, palms do this. To remove this sticky stuff I like to take an old rag/towel and wet it with hot water and lay it over the windshield to let it soften the goo up a bit, then I use paper towels or an old rag sopping wet with warm water and ammonia to swab over the window glass, returning to rinse thoroughly or re-wipe with plain water soaked towel. Cleans up like a charm.
