Dec 2019 - I'm updating my review now that I've used the tick spoon. First, I had a tick on myself. This spoon popped it out easily. Then our big dog apparently laid in a tick nest or something; so far we've found 30 ticks on her in the last few days. This spoon makes easy work of removing them. Normally it's a fight to have the dog be still while you re-find the tick and get tweezers around it; but our dog doesn't seem to mind this method much at all (though she's not crazy about us pulling ticks off on her face). Our smaller dog had a few ticks, and the spoon method didn't bother her either.
I can't imagine if we'd had to pull all these ticks off using the old-fashioned method! 😫 It's also easy to use a bit of toilet paper to wipe each tick off so you can get the next one. I've been flushing them; but I did just read that they should be submersed in alcohol to kill them.
July 2019 - Haven't used yet, but looks promising
This isn't the kind of thing that you order when you need it, and use it as soon as you get it. ;) So I haven't had to use it yet to remove a tick; though it looks promising! I'm a little concerned about how well the spoons will work and hold up when we use it on the dogs, but they look like they'll do great on people. I am curious whether it actually removes the head or just pops the body off. It came with a tick ID card, which I can't see being terribly useful; but it's not like they charged extra for it! The carabiner is nice so you can attach it easily to your pack if hiking.

Lightweight, Portable Tick Remover Tools
The TickCheck Tick Removers are designed to be small, lightweight, and easy to carry! Clip them to your backpack, belt, your dog's collar, or even keep them in your wallet!
Includes Pocket Tick Identification Card
Each TickCheck Tick Remover Set includes a high-quality Tick Identification Card with a reference to help you identify the three most common ticks in North America:
- Deer Tick - This small, black and reddish tick can carry and transmit Lyme disease. Nymph deer ticks are especially dangerous because they are smaller than the head of a pin
- Lone Star Tick - This tick, identified by a telltale white spot on the dorsal shield, is associated with diseases including STARI (Southern Tick Associated Rash Illness) and Bartonellosis
- American Dog Tick - This larger, brown tick is known to carry bacteria that cause diseases including Tularemia and Rocky Mountain spotted fever
The card also includes instructions for safely removing embedded ticks, and information on having ticks professionally identified or tested for tick-borne disease at the TickCheck's university-associated tick testing laboratory.
Reduce Risk of Tick-Borne Disease
Keep your TickCheck Tick Remover Kit handy in your backpack, first aid kit, or glove compartment and do a full body tick-check every time you return from an outdoor activity in a tick-infested area.
Fast detection and removal of an embedded tick is the first step to preventing Lyme and other tick borne diseases. Research has shown that the faster you remove an embedded tick, the lower the risk of disease transmission.
Get prepared for tick season with a TickCheck Tick Remover Kit!

It works!
I moved to a wooded area and knew I had to prepare for ticks. Not just for prevention but have tools on hand to remove them. I searched bought several types. I chose this one because it looked easy to use. One day while petting my dog on his head, YUCK a tick. So much for all of the preventative measures. I went to my supplies and decided to try these to see how it would work. IT WAS EXCELLENT AT TICK REMOVAL and CAPTURE. I did not have to worry about poking my dog with tweezers if he did not hold still. I did not have to worry about the avoiding twisting or breaking the tick's head off with removal- just carefully placed the tool and scooped it off! So EASY! I'd recommend this to anyone to keep on hand in their tick removal kit! After that, I attached one to my hiking backpack so that we are prepared at home or away. Glad this comes in 3 pack to have one when and where we need it. Yay!

Size: 1 Set (3 Spoons)Verified Purchase
Update - May 2021
In the past month, I've used one to remove ticks from two of our barn cats and it was very easy to use. Luckily our cats are okay with being held, but they do squirm when I'm trying to get a tick out. The spoon shape definitely seems like the safer option for us compared to tweezer type tools. I've gotten my money's worth already and am glad to have these on hand.

I purchased this after finding a tick on one of our barn cats; I got the tick out right after finding it, but decided to order this for future use. It was a really good price for three, my husband and I can each keep one in our vehicles and another in the barn so we'll always have one when we need it. The spoons seem sturdy and I think they will last a long time.
