TICK TWISTER® leaves no mouthparts in the skin
The hypostome of the tick (the mouthparts that are inserted into the skin) is completely covered with hooks with which the tick anchors itself in the skin.

When you pull the tick upwards, these hooks unfold and clamp the mouthparts firmly into the skin. This can lead to the tick's mouthparts being torn off, which in turn can cause pain or infection.

When you turn, the hooks fold in towards the axis of rotation. This makes it easy to remove the tick without pulling, which reduces the risk of a torn hypostome.

TICKTWISTER® does not crush the tick
It is essential that you do not crush the tick during removal.

Pressure on the tick increases the risk of backflow of saliva which can contain several irritants and sometimes micro-organisms that can lead to infections and/or allergies.

Tweezers and other instruments of this type exert pressure on the tick, but not the TICK TWISTER® hooks.
