A simple and effective 3D-printed tick removal tool designed to remove ticks safely and cleanly — without squeezing the body or risking the head breaking off, which are the most common mistakes when using regular tweezers.
Material: PLA or PETG (PETG recommended for outdoor kits — better UV, moisture, and heat resistance)
Layer height: 0.12 or 0.16 mm
Infill: 30%+
Supports: none required
Perimeters: 3+
How to use:
Slide the notch under the tick as close to the skin as possible.
Apply gentle upward tension — do not pull sharply.
Rotate 2–3 turns until the tick detaches cleanly.
Tilt the tool so the tick drops into the recess, then transfer it to a container for lab testing.
After removal: Disinfect the bite site. Do not discard the tick — take it to a laboratory for testing. Early testing allows treatment or prophylaxis to begin immediately without waiting for symptoms. Store the tick in the fridge until tested.
Important: never squeeze the tick's body or use heat — this inc
