IPv6 UDP socket spawns streams

Hello, I have a problem with the IPv6 UDP connection in Python. I discovered that there is a resource leak if the library was unable to establish a connection.
I poll my counters in a loop, if the connection to the counter fails I get an error
"Failed to receive reply from the device in given time". My code moves on to the next iteration and I see that a new thread is being spawned, and so on every time.

active_threads = threading.enumerate()

for thread in active_threads:
print("Thread ID:", thread.ident)
print("Thread Name:", thread.name)
