If you find a tick attached to your skin, acting quickly—and correctly—is critical.
Here’s the safest method:
- Use fine-tipped tweezers
- Grasp the tick as close to the skin’s surface as possible
- Pull upward with steady, even pressure
- Avoid twisting or jerking the tick
- Do not crush the tick while removing it
Improper removal can leave parts of the tick embedded in the skin or increase the risk of infection.
What To Do After Removal
Once the tick is removed, take a few important steps:
- Clean the bite area with soap and water
- Disinfect with alcohol if available
- Wash your hands thoroughly
- Monitor the area for changes
Taking these precautions reduces the chance of complications.
