Your cart is empty.The ProTick Remedy uses its patented-focused design to remove ticks of all species and sizes quickly and meets CDC guidelines. Here is the statement from CDC regarding tick removal; they recommend either commercial tick removers or a fine-tipped tweezer. "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". Their instructions then follow. ProTick is not an off-the-shelf repurposed multiuse product from a foreign land. Instead, it was explicitly designed as an easy-to-use tick removal tool. It does not require a special case or container for storage. It’s strong and durable. Wherever you go, it's with you on your keychain, in your wallet, tackle box, glove compartment, or first aid kit. You don't need to look far for your ProTick. The journey that ended with the invention of the Protick began with a simple objective – finding a safe, easy and convenient way to remove ticks. What followed was an extensive study of ticks and another study of tweezers. The ProTick is the perfect tweezer substitute and is referred to by many as the ideal tick tweezer. The closing action of the ProTick occurs with the forward capture motion. When ProTick slides between the skin and the tick, it lifts the tick by its strongest point. The ProTick is just .011 thick, thinner than a credit card, and it is ½ inch wide and just over 2 inches long. The length provides just the right amount of leverage to remove a tick, not too little and not too much. We hope you will consider purchasing one. You will receive the Protick tick removal tool, 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. In addition, the product has a lifetime replacement guarantee. ProTick has been protecting dogs, cats, pets, horses, and humans since 1993

Been buying this tick remover for years (I'm always loosing them).In my opinion, they're slightly overpriced for what they are (tiny pieces of bent metal), but they work better than any other removers I've tried... and I've tried at least 4 or 5 other types over the years.I just wish they were cheaper so that I could buy them in quantity, and keep them stashed everywhere.Caution: Yes, they include a keychain so that you can keep them with your keys but over time the remover can wear a little hole in your pocket, it's happened to me.

Speaking personally as a fully recovered survivor of Ehrlichiosis, Bartenellosis, Babesiosis, and Lyme, and as a former Sierra Club Outings Leader (1) who has led many day hikes in tick territory, we think this is by far the best design on the market.Any remover that pulls ticks out can break the body from the buried head, allowing tick borne pathogens in the head to continue to inject into the host's blood, and also causing localized skin infection from the decomposing buried mass of the head.Instead, this triangular wedge is slid against the host skin and underneath the tick body, then slowly and patiently pressed forward until the tick body lodges in the apex of the triangle. Continual pressure forward and slightly upward forces the tick to back out of the skin while alive and whole. Not only does this avoid the dangers of embedded tick heads, but it also results in a viable sample one can send to a lab for pathogen testing.(1) The Sierra Club does not endorse this product. We are speaking from our personal experience only.

Either way, you should have a few of these, one at home, one in the car, one in your hiking bag, hang one of your pet's leash! Ticks are NOT to be trifled with, get it out properly, and quickly, with these.

I love this little tool! After years off eschewing tick tools, I decided to give the ProTick Remedy a try. I liked that they include scientific data on the tools effectiveness. It's incredibly lightweight, fits easily on my keychain, and works far better at removing tough ticks than the forceps or tweezers I was using before.

🤷♀️ I haven’t used this yet, but based upon the style, I believe it will work very well, as described. It IS small, about the size of tweezers, so will be easily lost. Would’ve preferred a longer tool, but thinness will make for better contact with Tick.Comes with chain attachment, but chain will easily break. I’ll replace the chain.

I've tried a few different tick removal tools and this one has never let me down, even with the tiny deer ticks. The trick to removing the little ones is to put a finger on either side of the tick just a bit away from the tick and spread your fingers pulling the skin taught, then with the other hand get the tool under the tick close to the skin and pull the tick out.
