Tick alert

  By , ,

Up till 4 weeks ago I hadnt seen a tick, this is my third, so I thought I would share the little blighter. I am no expert but we are looking at it’s tail, it’s head is in my leg. This was the biggest and the most difficult one to remove cleanly. I really struggled with ordinary tweezers to twist it out so I have ordered the O’Tom tick tweezers that the Lyme Disease Association recommends http://www.lymediseaseaction.org.uk/ from the manufacturer http://.otom.com/how-to-remove-a-tick and there is a quaint little video, apparently is works on pets and partners. I will have 5 spare at $4.17 or £2.67 call it £2.50  if anyone is interested.

Alternatively don’t wear shorts or sleeveless tops
