Anybody got tips for a quick n' dirty way to get rid of this little monster? It's just one tick that I've found. I was going to get tweezers and pluck it (just like with a human or dog tick) but my ball's skin is so soft I was afraid to rip it or something...
Just grab it by the head and twist and pluck it. You may try dabbing alcohol on the tick to see if it will back out, but more than likely you are just going to have to pluck it. Make sure you get the head out, and wash your hands!
