Way back in Boy Scouts, we were taught to use the match only if you absolutely had to… the better solution was to cover it with grease or oil to clog-up the little breathing hole in its backside so it’d scoot out.
A-man not faking – completely terrorized. All other comments are wishful thinking. We would dump Jack Daniels on the ticks and then a handful of gravel and watch them kill each other in a rock fight. dd
has anyone else sounded in to gocomics about adding the voting system? It was really fun. They e-mailed me that they have no plans to add that feature. : ( dd
Just get a good grip with a pair of tweezers and yank it off; check to see if you got the head. It doesn’t hurt at all (unless you also grabbed a hair or more)

(Actually some people say you should NOT use a hot match to retrieve a tick. I was just busting Arlo’s chops.)

Alcohol gets them out – isopropynol applied externally to the tick, that is.
