The words many parents fear are "Mom! I found a tick," or you find one on yourself or your pet. But, the fact is ticks are not easy to remove, and tweezers are not the simple answer they appear to be. Our solution to this problem was the invention of the ProTick Remedy. It's made of steel, with a convenient small size, and it is very thin so that you can easily place it under the feeding tick. It provides the perfect leverage for removing ticks, not too little and not so much that the tick's mouthparts break off.

The journey that ended with the invention of the Protick began with a simple objective – finding an easy and convenient way to remove ticks. What followed was an extensive study of ticks and another study of tweezers. Did you know that many (not all) tweezers have a quirk that the very tip opens as they close? Try this with your tweezer - hold it up to a light source to see the tip/jaw as it closes. Then, continue compressing the tweezer while watching the tip - at first, the tips close, but as you continue applying pressure, the tip/jaw opens just enough for a tick to slip through and become damaged. 

Tweezers are not easy to use; we all know about pulling out a hair – grip it hard and yank. But tick removal does not work that way. Ticks are not strong like hair, and they have embedded mouth parts that can break off; they have a body section filled with fluids when engorged. And it's also a fact that each species of tick feeds differently. Some have long mouthparts, like the Lone Star tick, that is very difficult to remove intact, and some have short mouthparts like the American Dog tick. In addition, they all have microscopic barbs (denticles) on their mouthparts, making removal even more difficult.

So the fact is that ticks are not all the same, and to make things worse, each species can pass on different diseases to the host. That's why it's essential to know the various ticks before removal.

Here is what the CDC says about tick removal – they suggest a fine-tipped tweezer and commercial tick removers. "If you find a tick attached to your skin, simply remove the tick as soon as possible. There are several tick removal devices on the market, but a plain set of fine-tipped tweezers works very well". The instruction then follows.

The ProTick is the perfect tweezer substitute. It has been tested three times at research facilities, and all research results were published and peer-reviewed. We hope you will consider purchasing one. You will receive the Protick tick removal tool, a 5X magnifier, a bead chain, detailed tick ID instructions, and a tick ID card with your purchase. It's a very capable tick remover; it's small convenient to carry, and very easy to use. The product has a lifetime replacement guarantee. The ProTick has been making ticks unhappy since 1993.

The best tick remover is the one you have with you!
