Leeches in Idaho dunes lake?

[RPMsRUP]

Hey everyone we are heading to the dunes in Idaho this year, wanted to see if there are Leeches in the lake at the dunes, google says there are, has anyone encountered them

 

[Markcsand]

Nope

The only thing you need to look out for in the Idaho Dunes lake is a BabaBouy as pictured in the water, here:

I see you chose the La-Z-Boy option on yore jet boat....nice..

 

[EastMT]

Yes

 

[L.R.S.]

Haven't been since 2017 and didn't see any leeches when the kids were splashing around. Didn't hear about the leeches until after our trip.

 

[BaBaBouy]

Yes, there are leeches in the ponds as well as some mites. Drying off with a rough towel immediately after getting out takes care of both.

It’s really comfortable when you kick the foot rest up.

 

[BRANDON LONG]

I saw them there this year yes.

 

[Meter Tech]

Never had any issues in the past....

 

[HydroPower]

Yes there for sure are. We take the kids to the lake every year but have never had anyone get one on them, just see them around in the water

 

[RPMsRUP]

I probably wont get in the water but my kids may splash around in it, just didnt know if they are closer to the toolies or vegetation

 

[rivermobster]

Did I have any issues with them?

Nope.

Did I see em? In Lake Elgin?

Yep.

Creepy stuff!!!

 

[J Alper]

They are fun to play with,
Seem line they did not bother the dog,
Kept a plastic knife just in case one wanted to stick, they are about 4'' long and look like floating worms,

Sorry, or is this about sxs's in the dunes

 

[Crusty]

[Justdirt]

Yes for sure there are leaches

 

[Toy Collector]

Never had any issues in the past....

Now, you will.
