Please help, I'm not from the country so I know nothing about stuff like this.

My DD went for a walk with nursery and has come home with this on her leg. She says it hurts.

*Hi. If you have matches then light a match and blow it out.
Then place the hot top on the tick.
Do it a few times until the tick pulls its head out.

Be ready with the tweezers.
You will be able to feel the resistance reduce.
I've done it a few times on my cats.
Works everytime

Good luck.*

i’ve suggested a flamethrower upthread. More effective than a match. Works every time.
