Tick Twister

The Tick Twister is a formidable weapon against ticks. Whether they've just bitten you or are already gorged with blood, this tick hook, available in two sizes, allows you to remove the beast from your skin or your pet's.

The Tick Twister is very easy to use. You simply pass the two teeth of the tool between the body of the tick and your skin and turn the handle without pulling it until the parasite comes off. This system prevents the rostrum (the head of the tick) from remaining in your skin and causing an infection, but also prevents the body of the tick from being compressed by your fingers or tweezers. The compressed body could release tick saliva into your bloodstream and cause infections, allergies, and even Lyme disease. The Tick Twister is very effective, painless and does not require the use of ethanol or ether to kill the animal. However, you must be sure to disinfect the area of the bite with an antiseptic after removing the little beast.

This tick hook is made in France of recyclable plastic. Light and very robust, it will be discreet in your bag but will be essential when the time comes. It was designed by a team of veterinarians and a study of international veterinarians proved its effectiveness during the "VETERINARY RECORD" in the UK.
