What are leeches most afraid of?
Leeches are most afraid of salt. Leeches are mollusks without skin protection. Skin is the first protective barrier for animals, while leeches have no skin, so they are very sensitive to salt. After the salt is sprinkled, the salt and its body fluids form a high concentration of salt water, which will make it stress-induced contraction, causing its internal body fluid to seep out, leading to its dehydration and death. Therefore, do not panic after being bitten by leeches in the wild, drop a high concentration of salt water on the leeches, and it will soon release the sucker and fall down and lose water and die.

1. Rats: rats are the main natural enemies of leeches, and they often devour leeches in large quantities, especially when leeches move on the shore, they are swallowed by rats because they have lost their defense.

What if I was sucked by the leeches?
First find the head plate of the leeches (the slender end that looks slender in the overall shape), pick it off with your fingernails, pick the tail plate, and pay attention not to reverse the above order, it will fall off automatically. After it has fallen off, you can apply a band-aid after routinely cleaning the wound.
