HOW TO REMOVE A PARASITE living in YOUR DOGS EARS

New in is this close up photo of the tick still in the dogs ear, I have another photo of a tick removed with its legs covered in the blood it was sucking from my dog, coming soon! You know by now that you must remove the tick with its head intact, or the blood sucking creature will grow another body to engorge itself again on the blood from your dog! If the tick has already grown to be big enough to see, the damage by the tick has already been done! Preventative medicine is the best cure for blood sucking parasite ticks! Early detection of a tick sucking blood from your dog is imperative for the good health of the animal!

TICK REMOVAL SUGGESTIONS

HOW TO AVOID TICKS ON YOUR ANIMALS

You cant really avoid ticks in your dogs ears! These blood sucking parasites feed a feast on the blood of your dog, sucking so much blood and becoming so engorged on their feast that they will eventually and naturally drop off if they are not removed

Removal of the parasite tick is not always a simple task either! Preventative medicine is always the preferred chosen method.

If you see a tick and wish to remove it, you must make sure you remove the entire tick, including the head of the tick or it WILL grow another body to begin its engorging feast all over again on your animal.

To remove the tick completely, it is best to either use tweezers, or in my own experience, I use my long nails and ensure I pull the tick before it is aware of what is going on, enabling easy and fast tick removal!

I personally do not advise smothering the parasite tick in vaseline or a similar substance, as that has not proven to be effective in the removal of these parasites.

I have however noticed two kind of ticks and the teeny ticks I have recently been removing from my dogs are extremely small and very fast too. One ran up my hand and was very difficult to get off my skin although it hadn’t bitten into my skin yet!

Howevers, I have also noticed on removal of one large engorged tick, that there maybe many male ticks around. The female tick is much larger than the teeny male tick. These male ticks can run quite fast and are around about the size of a pin head, quite flat and their legs appear to stick straight out from their dark coloured body.

The female, on the other hand, is lighter in colour, fat even only slightly engorged on the blood of your animal, and her legs appear to be all located at the front of her huge body.

When you decide to remove one of the female ticks, you must ensure full removal of the female tick, which includes the head, which no doubt will be firmly located deep within the skin of your cat or dog.

If you fail to remove the head of the tick, the female tick has the ability to grow another body to fill up again on the blood of your pet!

Do not leave the tick in the dogs ear

Do not leave the tick in the dogs ear remove the tick carefully with tweezers inc the ticks head

Remove the head of the tick completely or it will grow another body and engorge itself on the blood of the dog once again! Tweezers or long fingers can usually safely remove the ticks head and you MUST MAKE SURE YOU REMOVE THE TICKS HEAD along with its body or it WILL GROW A NEW ONE and start sucking blood all over again!
It is very wise to wash your hands after touching a dogs tick as these blood sucking ticks carry all kinds of diseases that can also affect humans.
These ticks can attach themselves also to humans not just cats, dogs and sheep!

THE FOUR CYCLES IN THE LIFE OF A BLOOD SUCKING TICK

tick like with wings to fly was eating into my dog

Most ticks go throo four cycles of their life. The other day I encountered one tick at the very begining of its cycle. It was very small, not much larger than a normal dog flea. It was sitting on top of the fur and had not yet burrowed deep into the dogs skin. I was attempting to brush it off my finger and into an ashtray, this little tick held on for dear life! It was not easy to brush off! So how on earth do these little blood suckers move around if they cannot fly? Well first of all these are very patient little critters. They can and will wait for a passing fur ball and attach themselves pronto! They can also be picked up by birds, later, when engorged on enough blood, they will fall off and if they are very lucky, land right on the nearest next victim, be it a cat, dog or sheep. I always notice an increase of ticks on the cats and dogs when the huge herd of sheep have passed near my farm and although I treat my animals with flea and tick treatment, this is not really very effective considering the huge numbers of ticks still available to suck blood. Although I have found some crawl onto my hands after stroking one of my cats or dogs, so far I have been very lucky that one hasn’t buried into my own skin!

Every day we are finding these ticks on the dog, the dog has been treated with Frontline flea and tick repellent which should repel these blood sucking insects.. but! I used to pull them out with my pinched fingernails, taking care to remove the head of the tick along with the body, if you don’t remove the head, it apparently grows another body and keeps feeding off the dogs blood!

This tick I removed with the aid of tweezers and a friend holding the dog down securely! After looking at these close up photos, I dont think I ever wish to touch another tick again, even with my fingernails! Now I am itching like crazy! The dog however is sound asleep! TICKS THE BLOOD SUCKING PARASITE CRITTERS YOU DONT WANT UNDER YOUR SKIN!

TICK ENGORGED ON CAT’s BLOOD I removed this huge tick engorged with blood off my cat, took photos then destroyed the parasite! How did I ensure that this tick couldn’t suck on my pets blood again, well, some people set them alight with fire and some people splat the tick, purrrsonally I prefer to wrap into a dry tissue and set the tissue alight. It may sound cruel, but these ticks carry disease and will keep sucking until they are full.

    Ticks attaching themselves to dogs and cats, the ticks suck the blood of the dog until the tick is fully engorged, the tick can no longer hold on with its teeny legs and the tick falls off!
    The moment the tick falls off, its bloated body begins to shrink
    If the tick lands on its back, the tick is so engorged that it cannot crawl to its next meal!
    If the ticks still on the dogs skin, remove it carefully, purrrhaps with tweezers to ensure the ticks head is still attached to the ticks engorged body, or the tick can grow another body and fill up once again on your dogs blood!

    I remove ticks from my dogs on a daily basis, although the dogs have been treated with a good brand of tick repellant, these ticks are adamant and the ticks will wait a long time for their next feed to pass by.

  3. Luvitsa says:

    When the ticks are young, they are the size of around 2 mm, the young tick appears quite different to these close up photos of huge engorged ticks, the young tick is flat and oval shaped, they can move quite fast and are far harder to remove from the dogs fur and skin as they can dig themselves into the skin further, these young ticks I would advise you to use tweezers carefully to remove the entire young tick and be careful the tick dosn’t choose you as its next meal!
