You need to start by purchasing a Sawyer tick plier. This kind of plier will do the best job of taking out a tick, and is much better than using a pair of tweezers. So first of all, source one of these pliers and you'll be able to get rid of the tick. The second think you need to do is grab the tick as close to your skin as possible with the pliers. If you have been unable to purchase any pliers, then you can still use tweezers to do this. Once you've grabbed the tick as close to your skin as possible then you will be able to pull it out by pulling the pliers or tweezers straight up.
You need to be really careful that you do not turn the pliers or tweezers in any direction whilst you are pulling. This is to ensure that the tick comes out in one and is not damaged in the process of pulling it out. Furthermore, you want to ensure that it actually does come out of your skin.
Next you need to examine the skin where the tick used to be to ensure that all of the tick came out when you pulled it. If you can still see the head embedded in the skin then you will once again need to use the pliers or the tweezers to pull it out of your body.
Once you have got the tick out of your body you will need to rub an antiseptic over the area that it had attached itself. You will be able to purchase this at the local pharmacy. Many people also suggest that you burn the tick instead of just disposing it in the trash or down the sink.
