In 2025, Zeckenspecht was featured on JAMA Levova — Slovakia’s version of Shark Tank. In front of a panel of seasoned investors, we pitched our innovative tick removal tool designed for safe, precise, and smart use at home or outdoors. The exposure helped us gain trust, visibility, and bring professional tick care to more families across the country.
The ZECKENSPECHT® grips the tick precisely at the neck, just 0.2 mm below the skin. This avoids crushing the body of the tick and significantly reduces the risk of transmitting pathogens like Borrelia.
The ZECKENSPECHT® is suitable for adults, children, and pets. It is ideal for families, pet owners, and anyone spending time in nature. Its intuitive design makes it easy to use, even without medical experience.
Place the tick into the included sample container, add the test fluid, crush it using the pestle, and apply a few drops to the rapid test (if included). Finally, disinfect the bite site thoroughly.
Yes, thanks to its ultra-fine gripping tips, the ZECKENSPECHT® can securely remove even very small ticks without damaging them.
Yes. The ZECKENSPECHT® is reusable. Simply clean and, if necessary, disinfect the tool after each use. For best hygiene, store it in the provided sleeve with the cap closed.
You can order the ZECKENSPECHT® online via our website, selected pharmacies, specialist retailers, or pet supply stores.
Depending on the version, the ZECKENSPECHT® is available with or without a Borrelia rapid test. Please refer to the product description for details.
