About the Original TickKeyâ„¢ Tick Removal Device

When we first set out to create this innovative tick remover tool, we were adamant about finding a balance between modest design and solid, reliable construction. Rather than using flimsy plastic material, the Original TickKeyâ„¢ is built using a durable anodized aluminum and is strong enough to remove ticks quickly and with ease. However, it is the simplicity of the design that prevents disease from spreading during removal, and because there is no pinching, pulling or prodding, the urge to squirm is eliminated. Both people and pets are able to remain calm and comfortable until the tick is safely removed.

How Not To Remove Ticks

Don’t Remove Ticks With Your Fingers

In many cases a tick is likely to be carrying pathogens such as Lyme Disease, Ehrlichiosis, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Anaplasmosis, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and others that are harmful to humans and pets. Tick saliva or blood is something you don’t want on your skin. Pulling on a tick, even with tweezers, can tear the mouth parts from the body of the tick and leave embedded parts in the host.

Don’t Squeeze, Crush, Twist or Squash A Tick.

This can force spirochete and other ineffective body fluids through the mouth parts of the tick into the host.

Don’t Apply Substances To A Tick

Applying any substances, such as petroleum jelly, fingernail polish remover, repellents, or a lighted match that upset or harm the tick almost always causes the tick to vomit the contents of its stomach back into the host.No matter how badly a tick may want to remove itself, it is not capable of doing so quickly.Ticks can live without air for long periods; attempts to smother it may allow disease transmission for hours.
