    If you are after self-freezing them off, try Wartner, or Scholl Freeze

    You could try rubbing the sap of a dandelion on it.

    Duck tape sounds a bit harsh and impractical. Try freezing or using salicylic acid prep to burn them off.

    Charm them away!

    Just tell them to go away, "Wart go away!" and it will go!

    Has worked for me as a child when my gran told one to go and again as an adult.

    I had a wart on my hand from my late teens to my 30's. I had it frozen off twice, bazzoka, buried bacon etc. Finally a few years ago persistence with tea tree oil and bazzoka made it go. When the wart disappeared so did the verrucas that periodically cropped on my feet.

    Do lots of hand washing in bleach water, gets rid of your warts, rots all your clothes. 1a_y_deadpan.gif

    Rubbing the inside of a bannana skin on them every morn and night works too. You can also stick a bit of bannana skin on with surgeons tape overnight and wear a sock.
