マダニに噛まれた Bitten by a Tick
5月8日にシャワーを浴びていた時に私のふくらはぎにいるマダニを見つけた。怖い！できるだけ早く除去した方がいいので、今回自分で除去した。しかし、引っ張ってはだめ!!!引っ張って除去しようとすると、体液を注入したり、顎体部がはずれて残る可能性があります。病院に行けない場合はこのやり方が一番いいと思います。厚紙に「V」の形を切って(私はゴキブリ団子の箱を使用した)、「V]の狭いところをできるだけ近くにマダニの頭につけて、紙でマダニの頭を回す。私の場合は2回転以内にマダニが頭を私のふくらはぎから出した。ホッとしました！マダニが怖い！最近SFTSが京丹後市に発生しました。嫌だ！マダニに噛まれないようにもっと注意をしましょう。
When I was taking a shower on May 8th, I noticed a tick with its head buried in my calf muscle. These things are scary. Since it is best to have them removed as fast as possible, I decided to do it myself this time. However, you mustn't grasp them and pull them out. If you try to pull them out, you might squeeze their body fluids into your body (along with any viruses) and/or you might leave parts of their jaw in you. I think this method is best if you can't go to the doctor. Cut a 'V' shape into some hard paper (I used a cockroach bait box). Then slide the 'V' up against the tick as close as possible to its head. Then rotate the tick with the hard paper till it pulls its head out of you. In my case, the tick pulled its head out within 2 rotations. Phew! That was a relief. Ticks carry some nasty viruses. Recently, a case of SFTS was reported in Kyotango City near here. I was not happy to hear of a case so close to home. Let's be extra careful not to get bitten by a tick.

マダニの頭が私のふくらはぎの中にいる。 The tick's head is buried in my calf muscle.
厚紙に’V'を切って、マダニの頭を回す。 Cut a 'V' in some cardboard and rotate the tick's head.
マダニがまだあまり吸血していなかったようです。 I looks like the tick still hadn't drunk any/much blood.
除去した後 After removal
熱などの症状が全然なかったので、ほっとしました。
I had no symptoms such as fever, so I was relieved.
