Here's Why You Should Never Flush A Tick Down The Toilet!
Ticks are a real danger for humans and animals! But if you want to get rid of them, don't throw them in the toilet – here's why
The thought of being bitten by a tick is bad enough - and if it does happen, there are a lot of things you can do wrong. But whatever you do, never flush a tick down the toilet!
They can transmit Lyme disease, turn into real blood balls and can even be life-threatening: ticks. Every year they come out of hiding and "terrorize" both humans and animals. After every walk in the forest, a tick check is mandatory. Almost everyone is aware of the danger of these little creatures - yet many still make mistakes when it comes to getting rid of them. But that's over now!
Pet owners know the problem all too well: a dog or cat (unfortunately) can't put on long pants or a sweater before a trip into the wild. The consequence: our sweet animal gets bitten by bloodthirsty ticks, and the bloodsuckers have no problem with biting humans either. But what to do once you remove it? Don't flush it down the toilet - and don't crush it either!
