I get bitten by ticks all the time (hunting, fishing, sex in the woods). I always carry a bottle of clear nail polish in my provisional bag, and when I find them on me, I coat the exposed part of their body with the polish. This suffocates them as they breathe with their bodies, and then they will pull themselves out of your skin and then you can kill them.
One time after a long day of hutning I was doing my tick self exam, and I found one right on my butt. It was right in the soft skin too, if you know what I mean... So I started pulling on it and it was hurting immensely, and then I realized it was just a hemmoroid....
