 Safe and easy
removal of ticks – with Dr. G. Schick’s Tick Tweezers
 Dr.
Schick's Tick Tweezers, available in chemists and guaranteed simple
and easy to use, are ideal for removing ticks.
Dr. Schick's Tick Tweezers and
the patented Ultra Tick Tweezers
are used by doctors in general practice with great success and recommended
to the layman for removing ticks.
General information
The removal of firmly attached ticks is almost always a problem for the
layman. You should never use oil or other substances for removing ticks,
because this increases the risk of infection.
The mouthparts (erroneously also called "tick head") frequently
tear off and remain sticking in the skin. This can be prevented by twisting
the tick out of the skin.
The rotating movement causes gentler pulling. Moreover, rotating aids stabilisation
between the mouthparts and the tick’s body, thus in almost all cases
preventing the "tick head" being torn off.
Firmly attached ticks can be grasped by Dr.
Schick's Tick Tweezers and twisted out with 2-3 twists:
• Press the release buttons
• Place the tweezer on the tick
• Slowly twist out the tick
The site of the bite should be disinfected once the tick has been removed.
A tick should be removed as soon as possible, as this may in some circumstances
reduce the risk of infection.
After a tick bite the aid of a doctor should definitely be sought:
a) if there is local reddening at the site of the bite.
b) if symptoms occur, such as, e.g. feeling unwell, headache, fever (similar
to a flu infection).
Application
with the new Ultra Tick Tweezer
Remove fully attached ticks (A) differently
from small ticks (B)
A) Slide the Tick Tweezer over
the side of the body of the tick, so that the body is located in the pocket
of the tweezers. Then pull the tick out of the skin with a slight rotating
movement.
B) Open Tick Tweezer, take hold
of the tick as close to the skin as possible and twist out.
