Roughshot Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Just tried to remove a tick from the pointer and I am pretty sure the head is still in because theres a thin black line across the spot I pulled it from. I have taken hundreds of ticks of before but have never been this sure the head was still in and most of the time the tick is still alive when I remove it. What should I? Dont think it threw up inside her because it was full when I bust it afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushkin Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 RS - here are some links that let you know how they are dealing with ticks nowadays. I'm afraid the days of picking ticks off by hand are pretty much gone now - regardless of how good you may be at it. There are much safer and much more effective ways of dealing with them now. Hope these help some.
