Got Ticks? Here's How to Remove Them

The Tick Key
If your stomach turns just thinking about ticks, you're not alone. Ticks are gross, and they're dangerous, too—deer ticks can carry Lyme disease, and dog ticks and wood ticks can transmit Rocky Mountain spotted fever. When you're out in the garden, that's the last thing you want to worry about.

Thankfully, The Tick Key takes the work—and worry—out of removing ticks safely and effectively. Its unique tear-drop design allows you to quickly remove the entire tick, including the head, preventing tick-borne diseases that are common when the insect burrows. No more lit matches, petroleum jelly, or other time-consuming and ineffective methods of tick removal.

Made of sturdy aluminum, The Tick Key is easy to clip on a key ring or pet collar. It comes in seven bright colors so you can find it quickly when you need it.
