Default Leeches in Pond?

Or... you could continue to walk thru the pond daily and kill what
attaches to you. ;o) ~ jan


That wouldn't necessarily eliminate a problem. aiui, there are leeches that
like mammalian blood, and there are others that will prey on fish or frogs.
So you could eliminate the yuck factor, but not the hazard to your koi :-(

Besides, the OP didn't have fish in the pond. ~ jan
