Extract of Willow Bark or Meadwort as well as denying the area to "breath" is the old European trick of ridding warts. The Knight in Chaucer's Tale always carries Meadwort, its important to know the usage of what grows in the Heath.

By modern understanding those plants contain Salicylic Acid which irritates the skin causing the correct immune response and its not the preventing of "inhaling" which rots the wart but denying its ability to "exhale" which causes its waste to build up and the process to stop, nowadays a piece of duct tape can do this.
