I got bit by a leech

[Xylitol]

It was on my leg in so cal
and it was prob there for a couple of hours

Do most leeches in the CALIFORNIA area have diseases or cause infections?
If they do are they serious?

xylitol is a healthy sugar replacement. it reduces dental cavities, you can find it in gums and mints.
