O'tom Tick Twister

Product Information

Choose the most suitable O’Tom Tick Twister tool, according to the size of the tick (each pack contains two sizes, one for adult ticks and one for the tiny nymph ticks). One of the safest ways to remove ticks without leaving the mouth parts of the tick implanted in the skin, and without using chemicals. Our range includes high-quality Ancol, Julius-K9, Planet Dog and Ruffwear balls in a wide selection of sizes and materials designed to meet the demands of any dog.

Other tick tools exert pressure on the tick, but not the O'Tom Tick Twister which enables ticks to be removed quickly, painlessly and safely! Tick Twister® are instruments which have been designed for the safe removal of ticks from the skin of animals and people. As a result the rostrum can split, and part of it may remain in the skin; this can cause a painful inflammation or infection. The Tick Twister should be disinfected with regular disinfectants after each use to prevent infective fluids (full of disease-causing organisms) being spread.

Hold the handle between your thumb and index finger and slide the fork end of the tool toward the tick until it is caught between the prongs.

Aside from doing the job, it also removes the human stress of worrying about the tick and how to remove the damn thing! Tick Twister® is unbreakable, hard-wearing and indefinitely reusable and carries a Life Time guarantee: if you damage your Tick Twister®, contact us and we will explain how to get your Tick Twister® replaced free of charge. Das war jetzt ziemlich eine Lobrede, doch jeder der schon mehrere Zecken entfernen musste weiß genau wovon ich rede. Recommended by BADA-UK, the O'Tom Tick Twister is quick and painless and works without squeezing the tick, therefore reducing the risk of infection and disease. Each blister pack contains 2 Tick Twister hooks, a large one for removing engorged ticks and a small one for removing very small ticks (from 1/10 of a millimetre).

Ho avuto modo di usarle sul mio cane e quindi confermo economicità, funzionalità, buona resistenza del amteriale e non comprime l'addome delle zecche consentendo una rimozione veloce, facile, indolore di ogni zecca dalle più piccole alle più grandi grazie al doppio attrezzo. By rotating, the angle of the barbs is changed and ticks can be efficiently removed minimising the risk of breaking the rostrum. They mention that it's remarkably simple to use, comes with instructions, and is much more pleasant for the dog than the tweezers route. These materials are either ineffective, or worse, might agitate the tick and cause it to force more infective fluid into the wound site. In studies, the O'Tom Tick Twister was found to be significantly better than other devices on the market today for its speed of removal, ease of grabbing the tick, force needed to extract the tick and the condition of the mouthparts after removal.
