To get a leech off of you, you need to create a fire and jump on the fire for a few seconds until the leech dies

On the island there’s many outbreaks of “swamp fever”. You get Swamp fever by getting a infected leech stuck on you and TRANSFERRING NO longer Gets RID of SWAMP FEVER.

If you're looking for leeches (to get leech blood) just listen, cuz they make a sound in the water when you're close to them (it sounds similar to someone making but bubbles inside the water). Everytime I go to the swamp i always find them quick and easy due to this and I hope this help other people too.

No latch onto Beelzebufos

I read on the ark wiki that they dont latch onto tames native to the swamp

Fire doesn’t work to remove leeches anymore. Go to a tamed animal, open command wheel and click “hold to remove leech.”

The yutyrannus, not the rex, is your best friend for leech hunting. The leech is vulnerable to the fear roar, and the debuff reveals their location. This makes hunting them a simple errand. You'll collect so much leech blood you could start a swamp fever clinic.

Hi guys i read on google that if there is a leech already hanging from your body you need a fire or cooking pot to remove ... hope this helps - T♡

Fires work ONLY FOR PLAYERS ON MOBILE and you have to PICK IT OFF FROM MOUNTS.

WATCH OUT THEY GO ON LAND AND WIGGLE

Fire DOES still work on mobile (i literally just tried it when a leech was stuck on my chest)
i read that fire didn’t work and read that it sometimes does but i thought let me just try and it WORKED!
just make sure u have some fire pit built next to u on the swamp next time so u won’t waste time collecting wood and stone for one when while ur HP is dropping (specially mine was so low already cuz a sacro gave me a toothy kiss on the butt when i was busy collecting rare flower)

I hate leeches so only go throw the swamp with my spino so if a leech get on me i can get it off kill it and get the blood

You can tame it, but you need a fish basket

Taming a leech is quite hard and I would recomend its taming using a flyer to be away frkm them while you use the fish basket

They have a chance to give you swamy sickness if bit. Take a large land Dino like an Allo or Rex and just bite spam water to gather leech blood.

Guys according to the ark wiki leeches don’t latch onto swamp-native tames such as
Sarco
Kapro
I think paracer
Probably Titanboa
And I don’t know anything else it wont latch onto

Idk if Anyone knows this but if you have a leech a argentavius can remove them stand in front and open the command menu should be up saying( remove leech) my pro freinds were like u lieing but it's true thumbs for safe leech removal

WHY does it say it gives nothing when harvested so devs can know

I can never find these things even though I was driving a raft across a swamp

If you have a leech attached to you and you never came in contact with a leech. One of your tamed Dino’s probably has a leech on them.
