>>2737232Same here. I've used a tick tool similar OPs on my dog, when it had a full tick. But I've always found them on myself within minutes/hours of them biting me. I strip and check myself after any trip into the woods. Growing up in NC the ticks were pretty stealthy, but here in NorCal they sting like a mother fucker when they bite. As long as you pull it in the direction it stuck in, you can pull it right out with just your fingers. I would use a tool if it was bloated though.
