Ticks aren’t just creepy. They pose a major health risk to both people and pets. These little bloodsuckers carry major diseases and their stealthy method to getting under your skin allows them to typically go unnoticed until the damage is done. What’s worse is that you can actually increase the danger of infection with improper tick removal. A common reaction to finding a tick on yourself or on your pet is to try to yank it out by pinching it with your fingers or using tweezers. This can actually cause the tick to vomit its own stomach contents back into the host, i.e. you or your pet. This is when infection with tick-borne diseases may occur. now there’s a fast, efficient and chemical-free way to easily slide ticks best out of your pet’s skin without squeezing or tweezing.
Dangers of improper tick removal
Tick prevention is, of course, the best way to be sure that your pet will not become infected with tick-borne diseases. even with some types of oral flea and tick preventatives, the insect should first bite your pet before the active ingredients will kill the pest. If you ought to find a tick embedded in your pet’s skin, your first reaction may be to try to squeeze, pinch or dig it out. This is very dangerous. Not only could you force the contents of the tick’s body into your pet’s tissues as discussed above, but the tick could also be broken into pieces, leaving remnants (including the biting head) stuck in your pet’s skin. These remnants themselves could harbor disease or cause skin rash and infection. The longer a tick is in the skin, the greater the risk of disease transmission. diseases carried by ticks include:
Ehrlichiosis
Η νόσος του Lyme
Rocky mountain found Fever
Tularemia
Southern tick-associated rash disease (STARI)
