It is important to check yourself, your children and your pets carefully each time you are exposed to wooded and grassy areas. Remove a tick from the skin as early as possible to reduce the chance of infection. We believe that the Tick Zapper is the most effective tick removal tool available. Very easy to use. It helps locate the tick with a bright beam of light and through the precision tweezers applies a small battery current to the tick (only the tick can feel it). The current helps relax the tick's grip, allowing it to be quickly and safely removed with less chance of leaving body parts under the skin. The Tick Zapper is safe for use on children and pets. Small and lightweight; perfect for use at home, on the job, camping, hiking, and all outdoor activities. Also GREAT for removing splinters! Only $16.95 with FREE SHIPPING and batteries included!

What is Lyme Disease?
Lyme disease is caused by a bacteria transmitted by the deer tick (Ixodes scapularis). Lyme disease may cause symptoms affecting the skin, nervous system, heart and/or joints of an individual. The New York State Department of Health is aware of over 72,000 cases in the state occurring since Lyme disease became reportable in 1986.
Who gets Lyme Disease?
Lyme disease can affect people of any age. People who spend time in grassy and wooded environments are at an increased risk of exposure. The chances of being bitten by a deer tick are greater during times of the year when ticks are most active. Deer ticks in the nymphal stage are active from mid-May to mid-August and are about the size of poppy seeds. Adult ticks, which are approximately the size of sesame seeds, are most active in mid to late fall. The risk of exposure to infected deer ticks may be statewide.
