We got this because we found a tick on our puppy and it was swollen and really big and we wanted to safely remove the tick. It was really quick and easy, you can easily put it under tick and pop it off straight up so you can get all parts of the tick out. Then about a month later, I came home from volunteering at the Humane Society and found a tick on my leg. My husband used it for me and it easily pulls the tick straight up and gets it all the way out.
Recently moved to tick country. It's horrible right now and I was completely unprepared! These tick tools are a lifesaver. Especially helpful for pets to be able to reach down through the fur. I first had one of those flat metal types and it took forever to get a couple of ticks off my very angry cat! Used this tick tool on the same cat tonight and it was much easier. The different sizes are important to fit different-sized ticks. Only thing I would change is maybe a hole in the end and a ring attaching the 3 tools together. They'd be harder to lose that way.
Had one tick this spring that was very difficult to dislodge so I was looking for a better way and your product was recommended. It took a moment to decide which pick to use and get it lined up as it was his ears. Once I did I gave it one twist and the tick came out painlessly and fell down into the sink and was flushed away. The best part was that it did not leave a sore spot as the tick was not pulled out. Very happy
I liked it came in a reusable zip storage pouch. And it came with a reference card to help identify the type of ticks. Also gave info where you can send a tick for Lyme testing. I like that the removers came in different sizes, as a dog parent of 6 dogs we know all too well ticks come in many sizes!
This little thing really works! This has been a horrible tick season, and I have had lots of opportunities to test it out. I even got a stubborn tick off my pup's eyelid. That never would have happened with tweezers - I would have poked his eye out. I love that you sneak the tick remover tool in from the side and just twist. Even in spots with long hair that were hard to twist, I could slide it in and pull straight out. Haven't used it on people yet, but would be great for squirmy toddlers and kids. Definitely would recommend.
I love that they're easy to clean. They fit perfectly in my wallet. I use them to remove any ticks I find on the dog after going for a walk. They made a great addition to my "tick murdering kit". The plastic storage pouch keeps any mess from getting on my stuff before I have the chance to wash them. They're easy to use. I may order a second set to leave in my car for hiking. Tick season has been awful this year because the winter wasn't cold enough. I'm glad I purchased these!
