My dad plainly pulls out the tick with his bare hands and just steps on the tick to kill it and wala is that okay too?

[drsfostersmith]

@maryjen123 Unfortunately, stepping on a tick doesn't always kill them. That's why we say to kill it by placing it in a jar of alcohol, freezing it or burning it.

We actually take the removed ticks and put them in a sealed ziplock baggy and immediately throw it in the garbage.

Worked perfectly with hemostats.I thought the head would stay in,but it came out ok.The most difficult part was getting E,T, to stay still,of course.He's a juvenile male chihuahua. ;)

For some reason this is by far the worse flea/tick season I've ever seen,a real battle all year.

Thank you so much for this video. I used it to help me pull out a tick from my dog and of course it worked! The hardest part was getting my dog to sit still, but I followed your instructions to a Tee! Thanks again.
