Just stand back and kill them with on a raptor...

For me when I was trying to rescue my dinos from redwood and i went with my Parasaur and i got attacked by these guys so i went home and the leech was on my screen instead of on the Parasaur so i called my cousin but he was no help(sorry if you read this lucas)and it turned out when i removed the leech from the Parasaur it was gone from my screen so I think when there is a leech on your screen but theres one on your dino then I think you just remove the leech from your dino and it will probably be gone from your screen hope this helps

I will just say that this things are really annoying

On the mobile version use a fire or cooking pot to remove the leech... on Console and PC versions the fire method doesn’t work, nearly burnt myself to death. Just go to a tame and toggle “remove leech”. If you have multiple leeches stuck to you, this will need to be done multiple times over.

Disgusting little

maggots dig in u kills u slowly nothing u can do about it Except Put on some lesser

Antidote

Guys if your luck enough you can get leech blood from ad gifts and even 2 lesser antitodes and if you want to preserve the leech blood forever just bait it on a fishing rod. You cant creat multiple and store the blood on the fishingrods. Dont worry you can detach it from the rods when you need em.

Leech can not leech sarco.and fire works on mobile

I personally didn't experience this but my friend got them off by holding down triangle (ps4) again I didn't experience this so I can't tell if that's true or not

When you see this annoying insect crawling towards you just take a spear,bow or crossbow and shoot or hit it.If you get swamp sickness by its bite just collect some rare mushrooms in the swamp and make the lesser antidote in the mortem and pestle

I just jumped in a mosa level 130 and died it still didn’t get of my face

Fire and dying have been ineffective at removing lee h!

My people on ark mobile

You can just pull them off with your hands in ark mobile

They will fall in the ground and you can keel them for some chitin and blood

A tribemate can open a command wheel on you and remove a leech, like you would with your tames, so don't have to burn yourself

use Leeches to simulate the COVID-19 outbreak in America inside of ARK Multiplayer! first, find a Diseased Leech. second, get Swamp Fever from it. third, start running around the map while infected to infect other players with it. then, just watch as everyone starts reacting in completely nonsense ways and not doing anything to prevent it, just like what the U.S.A. did for COVID-19!

These do indeed exist on mobile.

They’re pretty rare on mobile.

Woke up, took a shit, went back to the swamp to find my stuff

They can actually destroy wood I found this out by trying to trap one

Fire does NOT work. Instead press and hold the use button (Y) when prompted. The leech may be on your screen but that doesn't mean it's on you.

Check all your dinos and you should see the message "hold (Y) to remove leech. Do this for all affected creatures and the Leech should then go away.

I tried going in fire didn’t work almost died

I've got one on my giga how do I remove it
