If you find a tick, don't panic. Here's how to handle it the right way:
1. Use fine tipped tweezers or a tick removal tool
2. Grasp the tick as close to the skin as possible
3. Pull straight upward with steady, even pressure
4. Avoid twisting, crushing, or covering the tick with oil, polish, or alcohol
5. Clean the area and your hands with soap and water afterward
