ABSTRACT:
A device for removing ticks includes two partially elastic gripping arms, wherein gripping jaws provided at the free ends of the gripping arms are pressed together with a defined closing force. The gripping jaws can be opened for receiving a tick by pressing against handle pieces integrally formed on the gripping arms. The gripping arms are integrally connected to each other through an elastic support web at a location between the gripping jaws and the handle pieces. With their inner ends facing away from the gripping jaws, the gripping arms rest against inclined surfaces which are integrally formed in the interior of a housing which receives the gripping arms. In the assembled state of the device, the defined closing force is produced by the contact of the inner gripping arm ends at the inclined surfaces together with the internal elasticity of the gripping arms.
