ABSTRACT:
A tick extracter consisting of a pair of manually operable, electrically insulated jaws in the form of tweezers adapted to grasp the body of the tick, and an electrical source to supply one or more electrical pulses to the jaws so as to jolt the tick and cause it to loosen its grip on the flesh of the victim. The electrical source can be a piezo-electric crystal connected to the jaws of the tweezers by a flexible electrical cord, and can be manually controlled as by another hand, to effect the production of the electrical pulses from the crystal.
