10 stars!! Where have these been all our lives?! These little 'card' tick removers are amazing!! We've lived among trees and deer for over 40 years and every year, we remove ticks. Usually with tweezers but often either remove skin, too, or not all the tick. This little card has a magnifier to find and identify that it is a tick and then the remover part - a small and larger - works great! Grabs the tick and lift and TaDa!!! No tick! I've never known exactly what I'm supposed to do with the tick : ( but this sure gets it off our dogs! Great tool and great price!!

Purchased this value pack of 3 tick removal tools for the family pets since I now live in a wooded area where tick season is practically year round compared to living in cold country out west. This tool seems packed with lots of useful features to help educate a novice like myself which is another reason I got it second to the fact that there is 3 of them in a set. One for home, one for a pet backpack and the 3rd for my purse out traveling. These seem really handy with all that said.ProsHas a built in magnifier bubble for easier tick detectionMeasuring tool for identifying the critters size when located on the bodyBeveled edges for sliding it under the bug to gently remove it from the skinA larger but similar tool on the corner for larger size ticks attachedWhite is the predominant color used making it easier to read the print and locate it while stored in a purse, backpack, etcEach is separately wrapped so they can be shared with friends or familyLightweight and thin perfect for travelingConsNone at this time

These are a good quality. I really like that they are a handy size, so can be easily kept in a first-aid kit, wallet, or even the dog treat pouch or the like. The magnifier on it is a nice inclusion and helpful. I like that it is a multipack so you can have a few in different locations. It has clear instructions on it.I did think the QR code would lead to something more in line with helping you with ticks, be it identifying them, how to remove them, instructional information. Instead it just leads to their website to purchase more items. That was a big disappointing.Aside from that these are very handy to have on hand. It's a pretty decent value for getting a couple. These are always a nice thing to have on hand, just hope to never have to use them.

I absolutely love these tick removers! I’ve got barn cats that seem to always have ticks on them. I already had the chance to try one of these cards on them and it worked sooo easy, literally took 2 seconds and my cat didn’t even notice. It’s the same size as a typical credit card and only a little thicker, perfect for everyday carry. The magnifying part is great as well to make sure you removed the full tick. I highly recommend these cards, you won’t regret it if you live in an area with a lot of ticks.And a tip for dealing with the removed tick- fold it inside a piece of tape! Ticks are really hard to smash but sticking it in tape (and then smashing if you want) should be a sure way to kill them.

The PetVet Medic Tick Remover Card is a very useful tool to have on hand. It can easily be stored in your wallet so you are never without it. The card has simple directions via images on the reverse as well as a size chart for ticks. It also has a magnification spot so you can see the ticks up close. With barn cats ticks can be a problem. The old way of removing ticks with tweezers is so time consuming and you never know if you got it all. With this card tick removal will be easy and less stressful for the cats. The card is plastic so clean up is a breeze.I can see this being a useful tool for people too. Toss one in your camping gear for an easy way to deal with ticks.

Well, I hate ticks, and I hate having to think about ticks, and ew ew ew now I feel itchy. But I'm glad to have these wallet-sized tick removers scattered around the first aid kits in my vehicles and hiking pack.I had hoped the QR code would lead to instructions on how to use the tick remover, and maybe also some helpful tips on what to do with the tick once removed, but no dice. Instead, the QR code simply leads to the company's website, where you can find this and other products for sale.AI has helpfully provided the following (ew yuck blech get it off me) advice:If you find a tick on you, carefully remove it with fine-tipped tweezers, wash the bite area, and monitor for any signs of infection. Consult a doctor if you have concerns or experience symptoms like a rash, fever, or flu-like illness.Here's a more detailed breakdown:1. Remove the Tick: Use fine-tipped tweezers to grasp the tick as close to the skin as possible. Gently and steadily pull the tick straight up, without twisting or squeezing. Do not try to burn, squeeze, or crush the tick's body. If the tick's head is left behind, it's not likely to cause infection. After removal, clean the bite area with soap and water and apply rubbing alcohol or antiseptic. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.2. Dispose of the Tick: Place the removed tick in a zippered bag with a moist paper towel or cotton ball to help keep it from drying out. Consider sending the tick to a lab for testing if you're concerned about Lyme or other tick-borne diseases. Alternatively, you can seal the tick in tape and dispose of it in the garbage.3. Monitor for Symptoms: Keep an eye on the bite area for any signs of redness, swelling, or a rash, which could indicate a potential infection. Be aware of symptoms like fever, chills, muscle aches, headache, fatigue, or flu-like symptoms. If you experience any concerning symptoms, consult with a doctor immediately.4. Seek Medical Advice: If you're unsure about tick removal, have concerns about a tick bite, or experience symptoms, contact a doctor for advice. A doctor can assess the risk of infection, explain potential complications, and determine if treatment is necessary. They may also recommend prophylactic antibiotics as a preventive measure, especially if you were bitten by a deer tick.
