3. Cut the toes of your odd socks

4. High concentration capsaicin: you really need to be
careful.You will regret many things if you happen
to touch your eyes, mouth or worse with a
picogram of capsaicin on your fingers.This one is
almost 5%. It’s a lot.

5. It’s best to use surgical gloves while handling
this…
If not, make sure you wash your hands 10 times
with strong detergent after handling it. It won’t
work, though: capsacin is stronger than you.

6. Spread a thin layer over the area to be
treated

7. Insert the sock and fold the upper part

8. Unfold it and cover all the area treated with
capsaicin and at least a few more inches

9. If the sock is too thin, put another one
over it
