The magic of duck tape

My daughters and I suffered from plantar warts. We tried everything... I mean everything. Nothing was working it kept coming back or did nothing at all. Until we heard of using our house hold Duck tape (the thick silver kind) We cut a piece and placed it over the wart. We kept it on for 10 days. replacing it when it need to be changed, but the longer we left it on the more it was doing. By the 10th day it was gone and you could see on the used pieces of tape the dried up blood and wart..
Try DUCK tape it worked like a charm for us

Good luck

Hi Lynn,
I have heard of the use of duct tape for the treatment of warts. It is thought that the adhesive reacts with the wart virus and eventually destroys it.
My feeling is that there is nothing wrong with trying something like duct tape on your warts provided two criteria are met. 1. The warts do not continue to spread while trying this treatment and 2. you seek professional care if the warts do not resolve because in some instances the "wart" that you are treating may not actually be a wart.
Thanks for your post.
