Best way to get rid please? DD has 5. Bazooka seems to do nothing; tried duct tape but it falls off (even when stuck down with plasters). Help please!

DS had 2 HUGE verrucas (I have pictures!) and we got rid of them using a salicylic acid prep with duct tape over the top but very thoroughly wrapped. Once they started to go it didn't take very long at all.

You might find this interesting, we did!

I used mumsnet advice with ds - recurring volcano size verruca! apple cider vinegar, cotton wool.and tape. actually worked. Grin

I should add that we left it taped up for a couple of days at a time, then reapplied the salicylic acid and and tape. But we did have to use serious amounts of tape to get it to stick.
