We sell medicinal leeches of the species Hirudo verbana from our own controlled farm in Dekani near Koper, Slovenia.

You can buy from a single leech; larger quantities come at a lower price per leech (see quantity discounts). We ship with DPD within Slovenia (1–2 working days) and to all EU countries (3–6 working days), with a live-arrival guarantee.

Which size should I choose?

Small leeches (up to 0.5 g) suit sensitive areas and gentler application, medium leeches (0.8–1.5 g) are the most commonly used size for general hirudotherapy, and large leeches (1.5–3 g) are the choice for larger areas and more demanding applications.
