A tick that has attached itself should be removed from the skin as quickly as possible. The risk of transmitting diseases increases with the duration of the sucking act. If the tick is removed within the first 24 hours, the risk of infection is very low.
The tick's sucking tool has many small barbs that make it difficult to pull out. There is often a popular myth that a tick has to be twisted out. However, this is not advisable as it can cause small parts of the sucking apparatus to break off.
It is advisable to hold the tick close to the skin with the tick forceps and lift it slowly, not jerkily. After a short time (up to 1 minute), the tick will let go on its own.
