Tick removal tip!

with summer comming this could be handy!

To Remove the entire TICK safely...A school nurse has written the info below -- good enough to share.
I had a pediatrician tell me what she believes is the best way to remove a tick. This is great, because it works in those places where it's sometimes difficult to get to with tweezers: between toes, in the middle of a head full of dark hair, etc.Apply a glob of liquid soap to a cotton ball. Cover the tick with the soap-soaked cotton ball and let it stay on the repulsive insect for a few seconds (15-20), after which the tick will come out on its own and be stuck to the cotton ball when you lift it away.This technique has worked every time I've used it (and that was frequently), and it's much less traumatic for the patient and easier for mom. Unless someone is allergic to soap, I can't see that this would be damaging in any way.
