FUCK!

Petting the dog and found THIS fucking creature! What the hell? Guess the frontline didn't ward off this life size vampire.

IM000853.jpg


I remove the normal ticks pretty well, but how the hell do I remove this thing? God, if it pops and bleeds on me, I'm going to vomit.

I heard that if you put something toxic on a tick or try to burn them, they regurgitate into the host and pose more of a threat of infecting the host with disease. I almost vomited just looking at the thing. :sick:
 
omg.

I think nail polish will suffocate them and it will fall off.

Though that might be a wives tale ; I dunno ; try it.
 
Okay, I couldn't leave that creature on my baby. I bit the bullet and pulled him off. I hope that I got all of the mouthparts out and that Corky isn't infected. Holy SHIT! I hate ticks!!!
 
eww...im traumatized for life when it comes to ticks. I saw my friends mom remove one from the side of his head when we were kids. i been scared shitless ever since.



and his dad got lime disease (this was at a summer house in Jackson New Jersey which is a pretty dense wooded area)
 
Light a match, then blow it out, then touch the tick with the hot end of the match. Have another person right there with tweezers to pluck it up once it feels itself getting burned. It will release tension on its legs making it easy to pluck them out.

I read that that makes them throw up blood into the host and can cause disease. BLEH!

He's off now. I just put some toilet paper over him and pulled him out. Corky sort of yelped. That thing was in tight.

I know how you feel. I got one in my ear canal as a kid and my mom was in my ear with hot matches, tweezers, etc trying to get it out.

That's a tick. It's just enlarged from sucking a lot of blood. I would put alcohol on it and then a match (you blow the match out after lighting it and RIGHT after you blow it out you touch it to that). Then once you get it out put alcohol on the dogs skin to kill whatever else may be remaining.

When I brought Thira back from Greece- those things were manifested all over her body but they were the size of dimes. It was truly nasty.
 
It's a tick.. he is full.. just pull him out.

He may pop... so might want someone else to do it.

He will fall off on his own in a few days.

I got him out without popping him. THank GOD! I don't have anyone here but me, the dog and the cat. I asked the cat, but she wouldn't help me.
 
Watch out for lyme disease now. It can take 2-5 months to even show up in bloodwork. If your dog starts to lay around much more, isn't eating much, and starts limping, take it to a vet to get checked out.

too late. I already got him. I don't have cigarettes or matches or anyone here to help. I just pulled the thing off and dry heaved a little.

Oh, thank you for the tip. I will look for those things. Is lyme disease generally easily treatable in dogs?

The big ones can carry spotted fever, they get to be about the size of grapes when filled up. It's the little ones that carry Lyme, they only get to be about the size of a big corn kernel or so.

We had horses, "ticking" the horses was a regular activity in the summer. I'm immune to gross out factor anymore. They used to love to get into their tails at the very end, into their polls (the top of their head between their ears) and along their manes. We'd usually keep them off of their body everywhere else because of bug spray, but it's impossible to put enough spray on them to keep the ticks out of their manes and tails.

Frigging ticks. I can remember waking up in the middle of the night after a day at the barn feeling one crawling on my head or somewhere -- DESPITE having showered. Bastardly things.

HR, you have a little dog, why don't you get a nice pyrethrin dip and do him yourself? That's how we used to take care of our fuzzies when we had both cats and dogs. Honestly, I never did trust that Frontline shit, I just couldn't see how it could keep anything from getting in between their toes and stuff.
 
I'm such a city boy. I would have taken my dog to the Vet.
(I hate dogs by the way) But I have my cat at the vet 3x a year.

Good idea! I'm going to go run to WalMart right now. It is the only thing close to me. You think that I could just get the spray bottle kind, spray him down, wait a bit and give him a bath?

I found one of the little ones on him yesterday, too. I even got one on my own shoulder yesterday. They must be really bad this year.

The vets around here would crack up if I brought him in to remove a tick, I think. Poor puppy. That thing was right on the soft spot on his neck. UGH
 
Okay, I'm off to go get some tick dip stuff. I got to be a responsible mommy and make sure he doesn't have any more that I haven't found yet.

No, the other way, if you think they're going to be really bad this year, either get a flea/tick shampoo, the kind you lather and let sit for 5 min., or use regular shampoo and follow that with the dip (doing both you might poison your dog). Edit: What I mean is, using the leave on flea/tick shampoo followed BY a dip. Jesus, what a hassle, I can't believe I used to go through this every summer. Why don't you teach your dog to shit in a litter pan like a civilized animal :lmao:

You might need to go to a real pet store, personally I say use something that has pyrethrin or permethrins (or both, I can't remember now, it's been so long). That's what we used to use. It's not as toxic and that's an issue, especially with a smaller animal (and your pregnancy). I've had one cat go into shock from permethrins, but cats are delicate, and I found out later it was an allergic reaction (apparently some cats are allergic to marigolds, go figure).

me and b/f went bike riding about 2 years ago in the woods behind house (now a subdivision) but anyway came home and had one on his leg... grossed me out! I have never even seen one before. Well, he got it out but got very sick and it started to look really funny.
Took him to emergency room because from what I looked up on internet I felt he had lyme disease....the dr at 1st didn't think so and thought he caught west nile since it was so bad at that time...
to shorten this....it was lyme dis...which is very rare down here, and he still has this spot that is sunk in...it was nasty.

lol...not even a fraction as much as the oil war we have going on.
 
A fellow walks into a bar with a ten-inch, scowling man on his shoulder. He orders a drink. The little man jumps off the shoulder, drinks a third of the drink and climbs back up. The fellow then orders a sandwich. The little man likewise devours a third of the sandwich.

After this goes on for two more drinks, the bartender says, "Hey buddy, I don't usually pry into customers' private affairs, but what the heck is it with that little guy?"

The customer replies, "Well, I found a bottle on the beach. When I uncorked it, out popped a genie. He gave me one wish. I asked for a 10-inch prick, and the Genie shrunk my lawyer!"

Be careful what you wish for, right?
 
I didnt read most of the posts here, but....
You dont want to burn a tick, irritate it or simply pull it out.
Mainly b/c it will leave it's probiscus (sucking tube with bacteria) in the skin.
Simply apply a large dollup of vaseline around the tick preventing it from getting oxygen, the tick will remove it's probiscus and seek oxygen usually dying in the process but superiourly reducing unwanted tick infections.
Burning, ripping it off, leave the infecting agent still in the skin.
Just an ignorant thing to do, but hey, lots of ignt advice on the internet so believe me as you would others

High in protien and Iron I'd imagine. Prolly not a bad source of B-vitamins as well.

Though, I do think the risk of getting some sort of terrible disease outweighs any nutritional benefits one may get from them.

Come on! Just share. It'll be AWESOME.
 
Just bite it off next time, that is the bestest way to get out a tick.

For the rest of you ninnys, it is just a little bug. Yes PBR I am talking to you.
