Design preview. Rendered from the file, not a photo.
This model is not currently offered as a verified ready to buy print.
What it does
- Slides over the tick's neck so it comes out whole, preventing sickness from tick bites.
- Fits in your wallet, on your keychain, or in a pocket so you always have it when you hike.
- Smaller than store versions so it reaches ticks hiding in tight spots on your skin.
- Weighs almost nothing and prints fast, so you can make extras to share with your group.
You hike with friends. Then someone finds a tick. With this remover, you can get it off safely and completely, right there on the trail. No tools needed. No guessing.
Lay it flat on your skin with the tick in the center opening. Slide it toward the small end so the tick gets pinched at the neck. Lift up and the tick comes out whole. When you pinch at the neck, the tick cannot regurgitate, which stops complications from bites.
This design is smaller than anything you buy at a store, so it fits into the spots where ticks hide best. Throw one on your keychain, in your wallet, or clip it to your backpack. You will have it every single time you need it.
