Life hack: pulling sand spurs off your feet

Have you ever had those dreaded sand spurs stuck on the bottom of your feet? They are small, but the pain is real, let me tell ya! Some call them sand spurs, or burs, or hitchhikers, but no matter what you call them, there is an easy way to pull them painlessly from your feet.

At first, I’ll admit I laughed and thought, “No way!” But to avoid the pain, I gave it a try and wouldn’t ya know, it works. All you need to do is lick your fingers, then pull the spur out. I promise it works. You won’t feel any pinching or pain in your fingers or feet.

Try it the next time you step on these things, I’ll pass along your “thanks” to the person who showed me the trick. It’s a real game-changer!

Thanks for stopping by…
