Have a small bottle of alcohol or something handy to drop the tick in,
should you see one. Take a wet Q-Tip, it only needs to be wet with water,
and if you see a tick dug in, slowly make circles around it until it backs
out. You should be able to pick it up on the Q-Tip and drop it in the
alcohol which will kill the little bastard. I saw this on Facebook last
week and had occasion to do it a couple of days ago. Holy shamoley, it
worked!
