After having used a pair of tweezers to remove a tick and not being able to get all of it out, I've discovered there is a better way. By sliding this slotted "Pro-Tick Remedy" flush with the skin and around the tick's mouth where it is attached to the skin, firm but gentle pressure can be used to pry the whole tick away from its blood meal. It seems to be far more effective and safer than the oft used efforts to "motivate" the tick to back out because of heat, suffocation or squeezing. Completely removing potential disease carrying ticks is not an every day event for humans or pets but having this tool available in one's first aid kit or medicine cabinet is an excellent idea. Recently, I've learned that tick-borne diseases can lead to very serious and complex health problems. Preventing tick bites is preferable! However, should one get by you, having a simple, safe and effective tool like this available to remove an attached tick is the way to go. Now, I'm prepared!Read full review

At £5 - 6 each, these work well and are the best tick removers that I have encountered amongst several types. From this source however, actual cost has ended at about £16 each because of postal costs and undisclosed import duties. The remover is great, It is a VERY expensive item when bought through this site. So much so that I would not buy again

We live in an open area with both fields and woods, so tick removal was a routine part of caring for our dog. I tried a number of tick removal tools and, in my view, this is the best own out there.

For most ticks, this is a good tool. Some seem to flatten themselves and slip through. Using this and the Trix tick lasso you can get all of them out with their mouths.
