Duct Tape Can Remove Warts
chris_calabrese writes "According to this Reuters article on Yahoo! News, "Duct tape, already legendary for its many uses, can also be deployed to get rid of warts, U.S. Army researchers said on Monday." The basic idea is to tape over the warts and suffocate them. Apparently more effective than the traditional cryotherapy too."
I tried to suffocate what I thought was a wart with duct tape, but I had to take it off after one day because I had to pee really bad.

As opposed to the other kind?
"And like that
1: 1/2 bottle Jack Daniels, applied internally.
2: 1 fork, tines heated red hot over gas stove
3: Apply hot fork tines CAREFULLY to center of wart area.
4: Swear a lot.
5: Big Profit!! (and no more wart, seriously)
Id say ill use duct tape in the future, but i think clearing off 1 wart this way scared all the others away permanently.

Well, I had a huge wart on my big toe, which grew back after being burned off with acid and a hot needle. Then my sister stepped on it at the airport in Hawaii (I was wearing slippers), ripping it clean off. This was at the baggage counter, where family were all trying to hug me and say, "hello". I bled all over the place. However, a dog came up and ate the ripped off wart, and followed me around licking up much of the blood.
The remaining wart crater scabbed over with a hard black shell, which I eventually tore off with some tweezers. The wart never came back.
