NEXT TIME??? I bloody hope not.

All the research I did said explicitly not to put any chemicals on them, it will likely make them "vomit" and thus inject a big load of pathogens, including any Lyme disease bacteria they may be carrying. Just grab as near the skin as you can, and pull straight without twisting.
But ... pain relief gel ... might have been good.
Except then I'd have to go to the chemist and ask for some tooth pain gel, and explain (with mime and sign language) that I wanted it to put on the tick on my scrotum... probably get arrested. I'd rather take the smarting for a few moments thanks. :p
