Card for quick and safe removal of ticks.
Kik's patented tick card system is ideal for removing ticks quickly and safely. Only by removing ticks quickly can the risk of transmission of Lyme disease or TBE be reduced. Thanks to its handy credit card format, it fits in your wallet or trouser pocket. This means you always have it to hand in case one of these annoying beasts bites into you, your dog or your cat.Application: Slide the notch of the tick card under the tick close to the skin, push the card further and carefully pull the tick out upwards. You should then disinfect the puncture site. The tick's mouthparts, which may get stuck in the skin, are usually shed within a few days. If this does not happen or if the bite site becomes infected, please go to the doctor to be on the safe side. Check the bite site for a few more weeks to see if a Lyme disease ring forms around it.
