SAFE TICK REMOVAL
Prompt and complete removal of engorged ticks is vital to avoiding tick-borne diseases.
- Don't panic! Remove the tick as soon as you realise it's on you.
- Never remove a tick with your fingers.
- Aggravating a tick by squeezing, burning or putting any substance on it can cause the tick to release its toxic saliva into you, which increases the risk of a tick-borne disease.
- When the tick is agitated it will attach itself to you or your pet with greater determination.
- Using fine pointed tweezers grip the tick as close to the surface of the skin as possible.
- Pull upward with a steady even pressure and never twist or jerk a tick out.
- Clean the area with rubbing alcohol or disinfectant.
- Always wash your hands with warm soapy water and disinfect the Tickease after use.
If you have symptoms such as a rash, swelling, flu-like symptoms, or an anaphylaxis reaction, consult a Doctor immediately.
Using blunt household tweezers can increase the chances of tearing the tick. They are also ineffective in removing tiny nymph-stage ticks or when the tick is engorged.
Only the TickEase is designed for the job!
