I just avoid 20M.  Problem solved.  There's other bands which respond as 
well with fine gentlemen operators, 17M and 30M as examples.  If you've 
not tried 60M, it is a wonderful relief from the vocabulary found on 40M.

73

If you dare to call CQ there, even when it's empty and after asking if the frequency is in use, you'll be bombarded by their transmitters running as much power as they can, intentionally interfering with you.
