This comes to mind because I just pulled one out of the top
of my foot last week. Wish I had heard of this trick:
I had a friend tell me what she believes is the best
way to remove a tick. It should work in those places where
it's sometimes difficult to get to with tweezers:
between toes, in the middle of a head full of dark hair, etc.
"Apply a glob of liquid soap to a cotton ball. Cover the tick
with the soap-soaked cotton ball and swab it for a few
seconds (15-20), the tick will come out on its own and be
stuck to the cotton ball when you lift it away. This
technique has worked every time I've used it (and that
was frequently, and it's much less traumatic for the
patient and easier for me.."
Back to the deck...
