  4. How did that get there? • HPV likes warm, moist places like small cuts or scratches. • Warts begin to grow and can grow for months even years before they are noticeable. • People who bite their nails get warts more often. http://www.texashealth.org/ae_images/adam04/graphics/images/en/19711.jpg

  5. Did You Know? • The warts stay on one part of the body, rarely spreading. (1) • Although contagious, it is common for only one person in a house hold to get them.(1) • Warts are not from touching frogs or toads.
