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.

No latch onto Beelzebufos

FOR MOBILE PLAYERS ONLY:

These are in the swamp, they’re just super rare and you rarely will find them. They must be removed via campfire or cooking pot, same thing applies to dinos that aren’t native to the swamp.

FOR MOBILE PLAYERS ONLY:

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

WATCH OUT THEY GO ON LAND AND WIGGLE

If you go to scorched it instantly gets rid of swamp fever for you. I’m not sure about anywhere else.

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

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♡

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.

If you get leached, don't freak out, worst possible scenario from getting leached is that you freak out, run to your base, use all of your Stam and stop walking and you get attacked by something (baryonyx, sarco, kapro, titanboa, ect.) Or that you somehow forget that it stuck to your face and realize it who knows how long later (10, 20 minutes maybe no clue) when in red print, "you have died." These are definitely not something to worry about too much, but try to get it off the first chance you get.

If a leach is on one of your TAMES it will appear on your screen as though it's on you.

Walk up to your tame and hit Triangle(PS4 obvs) and it'll get rid.

Hello gguys if a leech attach to your dinos you can remove it without using fire and if you look to the icon on the top left like the icon hand tap it and the leech is of you dinos mounts or flyer so if u find this a useful tip to take off the leech and is less dangerous

Leeches make a very unique sound when swimming.

Once you learn to hear it, you can find leeches by stopping and listening for their approach

To the post that said they weren’t sure if swamp fever exists in mobile, it does. I’ve gotten it on mobile. Also I was killing animals in the swamp with my dire wolf and it said killed infected leech in the kill feed.

For those of you who think leeches aren’t in mobile you can find them in swamps I have seen three they are in the water you can see them going thru the ground if you get one stuck to you just build a campfire and stand on it!

If you find one and it gives a sickness DONT SOREAD IT make a lesser antidote just kill it get the blood get rare flowers and mushrooms if you spread it your a real douche. And you’ll get targeted on PVP

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.

Mobile players only:

Leeches are super rare and I'm pretty sure swamp fever isn't a thing (not 100%). If you get butted you need to jump into a campfire and for tames you can just use the grab option to remove them
