How to remove a leech without pain or blood!

This is me showing you how to remove a leech, once you got biten by one. Unlike other procedures, this one is quite safe, painless, and efficient. But the biggest advantage is that even if a layperson does it, not one drop of blood will be shed, even if it already broke the skin! Just look at the other videos where you are told to use your fingernail; all of them bleed, which, in the rainforrest, attracts a large number of flies and insects right away.
Just be sure (if you try it at home/elsewhere) to not make the piece of metal too hot, because the leech might empty its intestinal contents into the wound.

If you flick it off it will do what?

@ZombiesEscape bleed like hell... not really helping in the jungle with millions of mosquitos

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.

@ModPCLM you can eather warm it up in a campfire, or even use some bug-spray. it also works with leeches ;-)

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?

flipping it off isnt painful, it only bleeds. my bro once got hit by a leech and he cant even notice the pain when the leech accidentlly fall off

[umarazhan1]

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

@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.
