O'tom Tick Twister

Product Information

Frontline Combo for dogs is a triple acting parasitic treatment that works on fleas, ticks and biting lice. Anyone who spends time in the countryside, whether for camping, farming, hiking, walking the dog or simply on a day out with the family, should carry a pack of O'Tom Tick Twisters with them. Over recent years, there has been an increase in tick numbers in many parts of the UK and Europe, in part due to global warming and changes in farming practice. To prevent reactions between treatments and collar materials, collars should be removed during use of liquid flea treatments.

When it comes to playing ball with your pooch, size matters – a small dog will not enjoy playing with a large ball it cannot get its teeth around, while a large dog could easily choke on a ball that is too small. I bought this product after travelling to Switzerland last year with our dog, and finding that it picked up ticks that are really hard to remove. With its locking system, inspired by a karabiner, you can also hang it on a key ring, a backpack or a belt. It is easy to use, allowing the user to hold the tick without compressing it and to remove the tick by twisting motion rather than pulling.FOR PETS AND PEOPLE: the Tick Twister tick remover removes ticks from dogs, cats and horses, as well as from people (pet owners, hikers, fishermen, joggers, etc.

The O'Tom whisked it out in no time and since then it has tackled one on his eyelid and one on his head - it is a very bad year for ticks this year I believe. You understand and agree that if your pet's condition should deteriorate in any way, you should immediately seek the advice of your veterinarian.It is rarely possible to fully remove a tick by hand or with tweezers: usually, the tick's head remains in the skin, resulting in a localised infection. It can also result from applying a freezing agent or burning the tick with a cigarette, lighter, or match head. One other thing - before you start the removal, make sure you have a jar or PET bottle with an inch of alcohol in it (can be surgical or simply some old brandy or vodka you can live without). Polymer plastic is recyclable and can be incinerated without pollution (no chlorine fumes during combustion). Ideally, wear rubber / plastic gloves or, in the absence of gloves, shield fingers with tissue or paper.
