Description
Plastic hook for removing ticks from humans and animals.
Very easy to use - an ingenious way to pull out ticks.
You can catch the attached tick in the slot in the hook as close to the skin as possible, by twisting the hook between two fingers in any direction + pulling very gently, you can effectively release the tick from the skin, alive and intact.
When removing a tick, it is very important not to squeeze the tick's body to avoid releasing saliva into the skin, which can result in local allergic reactions and the transmission of tick-borne infections. Tweezers or clamps and similar objects exert pressure on the tick's digestive tract. However, the hooks are designed so that the tick's body is only held in place without exerting pressure.
