Can someone please tell me what noseeums are? The dictionary is no help. I assume they're some kind of insect, and would like a more scientific name. Also I assume they're something we don't have in southern California. Thanks.

Noseeums is a catch name for any small flying insect, like "bug". They are also called midges and sandflies. Here is a Wikipedia article about them. Be glad you don't have to deal with them as they are very unpleasant.

This will help.
Don't feel bad. I didn't know what they were either so I looked them up. They are a small bug that look almost like a gnat. I live in the Midwest and we don't have them either.
no-see-um is supposedly the name given to tiny gnats by Native Americans years ago.
They are like mosquitos, but so small they go through screens and you can't see them! They bite and they leave you sore and itching for weeks. We moved from San Diego to Florida a year ago! No, we never had any insects problem in California. It's terrible here in central Florida. We are thinking to move back where it's dry!
The only place I have encountered noseeums in in the VIRGIN ISLANDS. I lived in Florida there are mosquitos and sand fleas but these buggers are way different.

Hello Rebecca just wanted to say that we tried your products and they worked fine for all of us, must say that we used some on our scottie dog Fraser and it kept the bugs away from him too! So thanx for the recommend, I'm a convert, Cathy
they certainly DO live in southern california and i am getting eaten alive!! for years i thought i was allergic to fleas, as i always had a dog as a family pet. i thought maybe i had a blood type or ph level that made me particularly sensitive to them, and would spend MANY sleepless nights, and many itchy weeks covered in bites.
lol, yes, they actually do live in Southern California. I have been eaten alive several times in Long Beach area. They are miniature mosquitoes, but you don't know you've been bitten until the next day, and the itch is worse and lasts longer.
