we take a needle and get it red hot with a match and hold the needed to the ticks rear end and they usually will back out head and all and you dont have to worry about the head being left in it, as that is bad when the head dont come out too or thats what we've always heard. Hubby will hold the dog and i do the needle. So far Kizzys only had one tick and it must not have been there but a day or so. we did this it got it right out. goodluck
