hisoka SG well, it would be much worse if poisonous. at least not poison means you can get near to whack and squash without fear of dying
LOTUSfairy SG some drop, some used axe oil to "unhook" the leech... one of the leech sank it's teeth so deep, that the puncture wound cannot heal leh..
LOTUSfairy SG i got one on my arm somemore.. but can't be worse that one guy got one at his bums, his galfriend has to try to ride of that leech.... we cannot stop laughing after hearing that..
ShrodingersCat SG Hmm ya cos leeches have 3 jaws.. so its really like one of those CLAMPS.. tt's why if they don't drop naturally, much higher likelihood to get infection from the bite. But if you use axe oil should e ok leh. I hate leeches. Am terrified of seeing them on my body. My mind freezes when I see one and I try to walk as fast as I can to prevent them from crawling up my body. and err never wear sandals or berms.. i always wear long pants tucked ugly into socks.. cos i hate HATE HAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE LEECHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOTUSfairy SG fire din work...we oso tried lighter...it curl itself up and sank it's teeth deeper, can feel the pain one... i kana once..
hisoka SG you know, after you said this i suddenly have this thought about what if its more towards the front
LOTUSfairy SG i forgot to tug my long pants into the socks...they sort of crawled up...around my socks area...and suck my blood!! bloody BLOOD SUCKERS!
the Bear SG these? came across the thing before too.. it was hilarious... i was seated in the back seat of my friend's Hyundai Excel... it was a 2-door car... seated beside me was this guy who was an arachnophobe... i saw the thing on the side of his car... right beside him on the window.. so i said "be calm" and i pulled him away.. he didn't know what i was doing and was telling me "wtf are you doing?" i calmly said to the driver of the car "Kirstie, pull over gently.. there's a huge spider in the car.. i think it's a wolf spider" that's when i heard the largest scream from a guy and one of the biggest in-car freak outs i swear, before the girl in the front seat of the car was out, the dude was already out of the car when the door opened (remember.. this was a 2-door Hyundai Excel) i identified the spider, and was confirmed by the driver (she's native there and was brought up on a farm so she's seen these things so many times before) poor guy was still shivering from fright even after we got back to the house after the movie we went to watch
ShrodingersCat SG yeah the bloody suckers can squeeze between the knit in ur socks too.. so .. err.. i SPRAY my socks with all sorts of repellent I can find. nowadays can find leech insect repellent too liao leh. At least my last couple of trips.. i didnt kenna lah. *shivers* damn disgusting. I even had nightmare abt them once...
LOTUSfairy SG too much talk on leeches...I dun want to dream about them too... when talking too much on a certain subject, I will dream about it...
the Bear SG leeches are hilarious according to Johnny Knoxville clicky here => Beard of Leeches the Jackass gang is mental
ShrodingersCat SG walao eh.. u got to put the picture there ahhh... *heart thumping* I'm scared of critters lah. Especially spiders.. cos they move damn fast. I mean in the 'open' if i come across like 1 m or watever away from me some giant centipede or snake, I dont squeal lah.. but ... I .. am scared of them lah. My mom's place is near kampong last time once we came home saw a hairy spider on the wall..w something stuck on it. My bro sprayed repellent on it, that thingy exploded and of course it was an egg sac.. and .. out sprayed abt a million baby spiders crawling all over the fllooor some people might find this an interesting zoological phenomenon but.. for me, it was just.. horror!!!
ShrodingersCat SG Eh why i didnt edit the repeat post and posted another that says repeat post instead?
