@n9erk Burning is used in milletery because they have less time, but if u Burn the leech then they spit the blood inside our skin and that can cause infection hence that method is avoided.
By the way, using heat is not the best thing in the world. Heat increases the chance that the leech will vomit blood and bacteria and other parasites into you. Leeches can also carry HIV and Hepatitis B, so heat and salt are NOT good ideas. It would be better it just let it do its thing and fall off. That way you don't get hep B or HIV.
@lissaninja i dont know if you ever had leeches suck your blood through your sandals, your feet, your legs, arms, and neck. if you travel through an area where you get biten every 5 minutes, it can become annoying to wait 15 minutes each time... but again, everybody feels differently about parasites, and what you say is correct: the best way would be to let it fall off.
@lissaninja haha so maybe I will die if too much blood suckers come to take my blood ..it's sad that I can only let it suck my blood... just like I will die ..ahha
@BeakyRed it gets scared and letzs go of your arm (or other body parts), but as soon as i flicked them off (i had to do this procedure, honestly, about 100 times a day!), they just start searching for new flesh...
so they are not severlely hurt. and on the other hand the only alternative is to rip it out...
and if don't be scared if you touch your arm, it just burns for a little while. but if you practice this (and if you're in the jungle, you will!) it should be no problem
how many different types of leeches are there? and is it ok to just remove all leeches by hand or are some spefiic leeches require salt?

@Kingnold and it would also be best if you try your best avoiding it, it can suck notably lots of blood
