Guest guest Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 hi, I'm new here, just joined, looking forward to learning more about herbs and oils about the duct tape, my dd had a wart on the bottom of her foot, we used tea tree oil (not diluted) and duct tape and it disappeared the duct tape seals the wart and smothers it Kathy in Canada - Chris Kelly OK, I just have to ask! I mean, I know that the world would probably fall apart without the wonderful duct tape......but to get rid of plantar's warts??? Please do tell! I have *something* on my left foot, pinkie toe. It seemed to start way back when, when I had to wear high heels to work etc. I thought it was a callous. It gets alot of dead type skin around it, but if you try to dig that thing out, it feels like there is a nerve wrapped around that sucker! OUCH! I'm not real sure what it actually IS, but I know that I would love to be able to get rid of it! I've tried tea tree, emu, junk from the store (even that acid stuff!). Nothing has helped......except to let hubby carve away most of the dead skin every now & again. It usually ends up with me being in tears I welcome any ideas!

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 Welcome aboard Kathy, It is great to have you here. I can't believe it that practically every day I hear a new use for duct tape *lol*. That stuff really has to be the single most impressive modern invention *Smile* Chris (list mom) http://www.alittleolfactory.com K + T [kcumming] hi, I'm new here, just joined, looking forward to learning more about herbs and oils about the duct tape, my dd had a wart on the bottom of her foot, we used tea tree oil (not diluted) and duct tape and it disappeared the duct tape seals the wart and smothers it Kathy in Canada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 Hi Chris, When I posted the request about the plantar's wart, I got some great replies. I believe that I still have most of them so I will put them together in one post and send them back to the list again. Basically, I guess the premise is that the duct tape doesn't allow the wart to grow or it suffocates the wart and eventually it dies. The one reply was just to use duct tape, but I made a blend of tea tree and a few other oils and she used that as well as the duct tape. Within a few days, she was able to walk on it again without pain and she had been limping around for weeks prior to that. There was another one about using a banana peel. I can't remember all of the rest. I'm a little too tired to put that stuff together tonight but over the next couple of days, I will put it together. Please send me your email address off-list and I will send you a copy directly as well as one to the list. Dorothy Chris Kelly wrote: > OK, I just have to ask!
