whole tick removal:

1. nix-tix scoop tips are
positioned to surround
​the embedded tick
2. nix-tix scoop tips surround
the anchored tick, cutting into
​the superficial skin surface
3. nix-tix scoop tips extract the
whole tick along with a small
piece of skin (note no tick
mouth-parts remaining)
​nix-tix™ had to be precision engineered to two very specific sizes:
nix-tix 1mm scoop is for the removal of small ticks, like the deer tick that causes Lyme disease.
​
nix-tix 3mm scoop is for larger ticks and ideal for the removal of ticks found on pets, like the American Dog tick.
​
• please peruse the nix-tix image gallery (pix & flix) to see many types of ticks. 

• together, both nix-tix tools will work for all tick species so you and your pets can get out into the outdoor world with confidence.

• nix-tix comes with a simple 3 step diagram (see below) that clearly shows our recommended tick removal process. It is recommended to clean the scoop tips with alcohol right before use and then after tick extraction, cleaning the skin with alcohol followed by local wound care to keep the area clean.

We also recommend seeing your doctor immediately and saving the tick for further evaluation for Lyme disease, Ehrlichiosis, Anaplasmosis, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Tularemia or Babesiosis or other disease causing germs.
