Are the clicks coming from other countries clicks from your CPC campaign? Can you share a screenshot?

Its linked to my adwords. I dug around. i found the right view. I would've thought Google wouldn't show my plumber ads for Bronx, in spain. Google should add a "local business option"

Change your campaign setting to people IN rather than "interested in" your target location

Set mass exclusions on EVERY campaign . Use a cheat sheet and exclude every single place in the world in 3 minutes . alter exclusion settings. Done deal.
