Strike a match and put the head of the match on it after you blow it out
Seems like I've heard this works somewhere![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/icons/shrug.gif)

How to remove a tick
Use fine-tipped tweezers to grasp the tick as close to the skin's surface as possible.
Pull upward with steady, even pressure. Don't twist or jerk the tick; this can cause the mouth-parts to break off and remain in the skin. If this happens, remove the mouth-parts with tweezers. If you are unable to remove the mouth easily with clean tweezers, leave it alone and let the skin heal.
After removing the tick, thoroughly clean the bite area and your hands with rubbing alcohol, an iodine scrub, or soap and water.
Avoid folklore remedies such as "painting" the tick with nail polish or petroleum jelly, or using heat to make the tick detach from the skin. Your goal is to remove the tick as quickly as possible--not waiting for it to detach.

light a match --> extinguish --> Immediately put on ticks back = tick falls off

Pull it off. Matches, Vaseline, etc can make it dig in further. Good luck!

He's really small - a tad smaller than the head of a match stick. If I grab it with tweezers, I'm just going to smash it because it is so small.

Tick key is the only answer

Tweezers. Burning it makes it throw up.

put your finger on it with some pressure. Rotate your finger in circles for at least 30 seconds. Stop and he will back out.

Nail polish does not always work. Just had to take one off my son. Ended up using tweezers. Squeeze the head and give it a light tug every now and then and it will eventually let go..

Just pull the sumbitch off. I've done it hundreds of times

This is one of the few threads were "kill it with fire" is appropriate.....kinda...he won't die but he'll want to get the frick away from it.
