Summary
If you discover a tick on your body, remove it immediately to lower the risk of tick-borne diseases such as Lyme disease. Experts recommend using tweezers to grasp the tick close to the skin and pulling it straight out without twisting. Clean the bite area with soap and water or rubbing alcohol afterward. Avoid folk remedies like burning the tick or covering it with petroleum jelly. Reduce future risk by wearing protective clothing, using DEET insect repellent, treating clothes with permethrin, and checking your body after spending time outdoors. Contact your doctor if you develop a fever, rash, or flu-like symptoms.
