Tick season
It is that time of year again. Ticks have once again survived the winter and they are hungry. Always do a body check if you have been out in the yard or woods. If you should find a tick, you need to be careful removing it, so the head does not get left behind. One way was recently shared by a school nurse and it is as follows:
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 for the nurse, and reports it is much less traumatic for the patient and easier for her.
This is no guarantee, but give it a try, as it may be easier and safer than trying to remove a tick using tweezers.
