Protick Remedy is a complete tick removal system
Compact and easy to use design
The Protick Remedy was designed as an easy to use substitute for the precision tweezers used for tick removal. Unlike tweezers, it's easy and safe to carry. Super simple to position under the tick and proven in the field and in the laboratory to be a very effective tick removal tool. Even professionals that are trained to use forceps like to have a Protick Remedy available for those unforeseen tick emergencies.
Only a product mad of steel can be this thin
The Protick Remedy design required it to be as thin as the tips of a #4 precision tweezer. With this objective we knew it couldn't be made of aluminum or plastic, it had to be steel. It's only 11/1000 thick while being tough and durable. So why is the ProTick Remedy still the only precision steel slotted tool available? Our patent ran out, its slot design has been copied many times, so why? Because it's a multistep process that's complicated and expensive to manufacture.
Loads of information on ticks and how to deal with them
The tick may have more folklore and incorrect information floating around than any other creature. They're nasty, they suck blood and carry diseases. There's not much to like. But to just hand you a great tick remover and nothing more just didn't seem right. So we put together a summary of the key points that you need to know about ticks. We took all the pictures, (we know ticks) and summarized how to ID and deal with ticks. We even include a 5X magnifier

My wife picked up a deer tick in our garden last week, and I removed it with the "Tick Ease" tweezers that I bought years ago. It worked fine, and I removed the whole tick and all of its mouth parts (don't twist the head off!), but these tweezers are a bit too big to take on hikes, so I started searching for something smaller.After extensive research, I finally settled on this product, SCS Ltd's "Pro-tick Remedy." Although I haven't had another tick to remove with it yet, I'm very pleased with it. It's simple, small, and foolproof; and I could use it to remove a tick from myself, anywhere on my body, simply by feel.It comes with a color tick identification card (press in at the perforations on the back of the package to separate that), an intelligently written, detailed and informative paper on tick identification, biology, removal, and treatment. It also says that Permethrin 0.5% is the only product that stops ticks dead. If you treat your socks and pants with 0.5% Permethrin, a tick should receive a lethal dose while it crosses the treated fabric. You can buy Permethrin clothing/fabric spray in some stores or online.I read some comments criticizing the thinness of the metal, and the quality of the 5x plastic magnifying glass that comes with the Pro-tick Remedy, but I think those criticisms are unwarranted. The metal seemed sturdy enough and thick enough to me. If they made it too thick, you wouldn't be able to slide it under a nymph-stage tick's body. The magnifying glass was fine, too. I used an expensive, 10x magnifier when I removed my wife's tick, because I wanted to be able to see exactly where I was grasping the tick (you want to grab them at their "dorsal shield"). You also want to inspect the bite site after you remove it, to make sure you removed all of the mouth parts. If not, you'll need fine-tipped tweezers, such as Majestic Bombay's surgical tweezers for ingrown hair, to remove the mouth parts. I bought a set of these too, but they are needle-points and it would be easy to stab yourself if you're not careful. I certainly wouldn't want to risk using surgical tweezers to remove a tick from a dog.The 5x plastic magnifier that comes with it is just fine, and I'm perfectly content with it. It's light, thin, and comes attached to the removal tool with a small ball chain. Me-thinks some people doth criticize too much about naught.So to summarize, I'm really happy with the Pro-tick Remedy. They're only $10 each, so I bought two--one for home, and one to take on hikes. Thanks SCS Ltd, for developing and selling them!

Very easy to use. I’ve used it a ton this year on my 2 hounds because the ticks were crazy this June! The easiest tool I’ve found to extract a tick-and it gets the ticks mouthparts out every time. I keep one in my car, house, and hiking bag. I’m not good at getting ticks out with tweezers, so this has been a godsend.

Price seems a little steep for what you're getting but is certainly does work well when you need it. I would recommend this to anyone who lives on an area where ticks are common. Comes with a magnifying glass as well as a tick identification chart, although pricey for what it is it's still worth every penny in my opinion.

this thing is the absulute best for getting those ticks off of you, we have fields in our yard and when my dumb little dog goes out for the bathroom, he always makes sure to go into the fields... This wouldn't be a problem if he didn't get seed, and most importantly ticks so ive had to use this device a ton more on him than any human but still works great.works great, and is very strong metal
