I have SAK with small tweezers and a small alcohol/vodka bottle with me. When I have a tick, I doze it with alcohol for 5 minutes, so it will get confused and loosen its grip, throw it on its back and accurately remove with tweezers, trying not to break its parts that are still inside of me. (as suggested by local Ministry)
Local ministry also issues "tick removal pen" - press the button on top of the pen for a slot to open, where you mount your tick, unpress the button and pull it lightly. Never done that in practice, too lazy to find a chemist who has any left.
>>291566Dont use liquids with oil in it. Only then it starts to vomit shit into you.
I hate ticks. The manliest shit I`ve done was at the beach, I had a huge beard after hiking for a month, had to make normal square knot of a few strands of beard and lasso that shit out.
On another occasion a girl who told that she is a pro and a forester just grabbed it, twisted and broke all its snout. We had to remove bits of a tick by using reamer from my SAK... never trust "professionals". After a week or two got very ill, could barely move and felt cold in July.
