a ticks head is a screw!
you don't yank screws out of wood
they nova-cain (their numbing chemical)the spot
on your body
so you don't feel them screwing in
if attached to you clip the abdomen with a clip
that you can easily twirl counter clockwise
and unscrew them is the only way
when your exposed to them like after mowing
don't sit on the couch until you see one walk
out on your wrist from underneath the cuff.
change clothes , get an inspection and or shower

Here is the write up on this product
For use on clothing, tents, gardening apparel, and other outdoor gear, SAWYER® PREMIUM CLOTHING INSECT REPELLENT not only repels insects, it kills ticks, mosquitoes, chiggers, mites, and more than 55 other kinds of insects on contact. It is effective against ticks that carry Lyme disease and other fairly common diseases like Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. The active ingredient Permethrin is the synthetic version of pyrethrum, a natural insecticide from the Chrysanthemum flower. Permethrin is odorless after drying and will not stain or damage clothing, fabrics, plastics, finished surfaces, or any of your outdoor equipment. A single application lasts 6 washings on clothing or 42 days (6 weeks) of sun exposure. The 24 ounce bottle of Sawyer Permethrin can treat 4 complete outfits.

so Lefty Loosey ?
I hate ticks

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Please don't grab them by the abdomen and unscrew. Also please don't burn them with matches, or cover them with any substance to get them out!
If you do any f these things, the tick's natural reaction is to regurgitate which severely increases your risk of infection.
You have to grab the tick as close to to the mouthpiece as possible. Recommended tools are needle nose tweezers or a tick removal device.
I carry a "Ticked #^&#^&#^&#^& tool on my keychain. It's like a spoon with a notch cut in it. Cheap on Amazon.
I know little about fishing, but I do know Ticks and the multiple diseases that they can transmit. I had 3 for many years that were misdiagnosed. Now I'm neurologically damaged.
Please trust me on this one. Wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.

Yes. This is true, there is so much bad info on the internet that can get you infected. Like rub them with liquid soap. Do not do that. The best thing is desricribed above, as low as possible and gentle pull up.
If the tick is engorged, you're probably infected get to the Dr ASAP. They all carry diseases.
I've had Lyme 2x, once 16 years ago and another 14 years ago. Both along the shore. I pulled a tick from me a month ago, luckily a negative model.
Be adamant about this we live in prime territory for exposure.
