Freeze don’t squeeze!

Ticks can be dangerous for causing allergy and serious disease. Kill the tick where it is and remove it later.

Option 1 - Freeze Pen (recommended)

1. Position the opening of the applicator 1cm above the tick.

2. Hold the aerosol dispenser as vertical as possible

3. Release the cryoliquid pressing 3 times, one centimetre above the tick. Note it is possible you may experience a slightly painful or tingling sensation during or immediatly after treatment. This will gradually disappear.

4. If the tick still moves after 10 mins repeat the process

5. The tick should fall out after freezing, or lightly flick the tick off the skin once freezing is complete. Do not pull out.

Option 2 - Lyclear

1. Apply a pea sized blob of Lyclear Cream directly onto each tick without rubbing it in.

2. Leave for at least one hour.

3. Scrape the cream and the dead tick off as if shaving. If all the parts of the dead tick don’t come out, use tweezers to extract the rest.

4. If the tick is close to the eyes or genitals don’t attempt to remove it yourself but seek medical assistance.

5. If you are experiencing any allergic reactions or symptoms, even minor ones, you should immediately seek medical help.

6. Do not try to scratch or pull it out with your fingernails while it is alive (kill it with Lyclear first!). Also, don’t scratch something you can’t see if there’s any chance it might be a tick.

7. Do not try to burn it with a match or lighter.

8. Do not apply any substance to it other than Lyclear Cream.
