leech bite?
Chums
I was in the garden yesterday, clearing the pond, and felt a pinprick on my shin. Another insect bite, I thought, and bent down and swotted at the black speck on my shin. I caught a glimpse of something that looked like a very, very small black slug, and when I swatted it splatted into a very small bloody squidge. It certainly didn't look insectlike, and I'd guess it was a mini leech like critter. Any ideas as to what it would be? It left a small red pinprick, and today it's quite itchy and has swollen. This is pretty much par for the course for me, as insect bites can often turn very nasty on me. But a little googling suggests a leech bite wouldn't react in this way. Any ideas? M |
