Tick Removal

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 it's own and be stuck to the cotton ball when you lift it away. This technique has worked every time it was used.It's much less traumatic for the patient.Unless someone is allergic to soap, I can't see that this would be damaging in any way.

Please pass on everyone needs this helpful hint.
