The process

A clear sequence.

Each illustration shows one action. Follow the images from left to right, from preparation through refilling.

01
Cryo · Freeze

Freeze the tick.

Part the fur to expose the tick. Place the blue cap on the orange end. Position the blue nozzle over the tick and press the whole pen down.

02
Assist Remove · Lift

Lift carefully with the cap.

Remove the blue cap. Guide its teardrop-shaped opening close to the skin and gently lift out the frozen tick. Do not squeeze it.

03
Electroporate · Follow up

Treat the bite site.

Remove the tick from the cap and put the cap back on the blue nozzle. Hold the orange end vertically against the bite site and press the pen two or three times.

The particles are schematic; this illustration does not demonstrate an effect against pathogens.

Refill

Refill upright.

Keep the blue nozzle pointing upward. Use only the specified refill substance according to the product instructions and do not overfill.

Stay aware of ticks

After time outdoors.
Check the fur.

Ticks can be easy to miss in thick fur. Check your pet after time outdoors and remove any ticks you find promptly and carefully. CARE-PEN is intended as a tool for use on pets.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions.

How do I remove a tick with CARE-PEN?

Expose the tick and remove the blue cap. Place the uncovered blue nozzle flush against the skin with the tick centered. Press the pen for less than one second, then leave the nozzle in place for about ten seconds. Use the teardrop-shaped opening of the cap or suitable tick tweezers close to the skin to lift out the tick gently. Do not squeeze its body.

Can I use CARE-PEN on dogs and cats?

The illustrated procedure is intended for pets. Read the product instructions before use and seek veterinary advice if you are unsure or notice anything unusual.

Can CARE-PEN be refilled?

Yes. Keep the blue nozzle pointing upward when refilling. Use only the specified refill substance and do not overfill. The images above show the correct position.

What should I do after removing a tick?

Check that the tick was removed completely and watch the bite site for a few days. If it is still inflamed after about a week, or if marked swelling, unusual redness or signs of illness appear earlier, seek veterinary advice.
