Summer is here... and that means tick season...
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.
How to remove a tick
-
Use clean, fine-tipped tweezers to grasp the tick as close to the skin’s surface as possible. Do not use petroleum jelly, nail polish, a match or anything other than clean tweezers.
-
Pull upward with steady, even pressure. Don’t twist or jerk the tick; this can cause the mouth-parts to break off and remain in the skin. If this happens, remove the mouth-parts with tweezers. If you cannot remove the mouth easily with tweezers, leave it alone and let the skin heal.
-
After removing the tick, thoroughly clean the bite area and your hands with rubbing alcohol or soap and water.
-
Never crush a tick with your fingers. Dispose of a live tick by
-
Putting it in alcohol,
-
Placing it in a sealed bag/container for testing later if necessary.
-
Wrapping it tightly in tape, or
-
Flushing it down the toilet.
