		<description><![CDATA[For no seeum bites from Hell....I saved my sanity using Windex (the blue stuff).

Also, cleans stainless steel really well...none of that special crap that doesn&#039;t work.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oh, wow. So I was having some S.C. nostalgia and decided to Google, in fact, “miserable bloodsucking irritant that you can’t get rid of.”

And after reading this I feel no longer nostalgic, but rather, itchy. I&#039;m also thanking god there are no American Legion baseball dugouts in my life right now.

Also, congrats on your grandchild ;)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am counting 13 bites on myself right now.  We have determined that they are no seeums (we actually saw a dead one), but I am getting bit inside my house on a daily basis.  Have not yet solved the problem, but BELIEVE ME, I will get them if it&#039;s the last thing I do.  In the meantime, I continue to get bit up inside my house.  The wierd thing is that my husband NEVER gets one bite.  His skin is very tough, I guess that&#039;s the reason.]]></description>
