Deleting rows with '

Question

I want to delete all rows form a table that I have. My criteria for deleting is I want to delete the rows where the value for the username colum includes an apostrophe!
So something like:
delete from users where username like '%'%';
Obviously the above line doesn't work. What will?
Thanks for the help,
Wallace
