I’ve got leaches in my garden pond. Are they harmful to frogs and newts? How would I go about cleaning out the pond without losing my blood supply?

As wb says, all part of the eco system. Amphibians and leeeches and all the rest have lived in the same ponds for a long time now
In the sticks near Peterborough
Yep I agree!! They pretty much attach themselves to anything like pots, stones, weed, algae but I've never seen them on fish, frogs or terrapins! I'd say they are goodies :0)
Thanks to you all for your useful, reassuring replies.
