You can just pull them off!. Plus there are some that only attack fish and not humans!. Not sure about repellant!. They aren't that bad really!. Plus once they feed, they can live for many months without feeding again!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Removing leeches can be dangerous their teeth can break off into wounds causing them to go septic i recommend you just let it finish its meal it will drop off eventually just wear some decent legwear and they should give you no problem!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
