Once the tick has been isolated, is clearly visible and free from obstruction, place the wide part of the notch on the skin near the tick (hold skin taut if necessary). Applying slight pressure downward on the skin, slide the remover forward so the small part of the notch is framing the tick.

Continuous forward sliding motion detaches the tick.

(Do not pry, lever or lift up - slide forward.)

The tell-tale "snap" sound lets you know the tick has been completely removed!

The tick is now securely contained for disposal (or may be saved for testing).  Treat the wound as needed. Clean your tick remover with alcohol or similar disinfectant. For adult and adult supervised use; not a toy.
