How long did you say it took for the wart(s) to go away and how many times do I do it? Also- do I need to peel or wash it?

Ya know, I dont remember if I washed it or not.lol Literally, the wart was gone the next day or two. The strange thing is, I havent had one since.

Duct tape works on warts.

Duct tape on warts

My dd had one on her left thumb for the longest time. I was just about ready to take her to the doctor, then remembered the docs at the clinic where I work talking about duct tape. I looked it up on the net and had dd try it.

She put just a little square of duct tape on the wart and then covered it with a bandaid. Within about a week it was smaller and in another week it was gone! Duct tape is much cheaper than a doctor visit!

Well, Cakekisses, I rubbed the potato on his wart today. AND...while he was in the bathtub today, I noticed two more small warts on his armpit and another small one on his stomach! So I rubbed the potato on those as well.What is going on here? I sure hope they are not spreading.
