Warts don't actually have seeds.
They are caused by viral infection by HPV (human papillomavirus), which causes thickening of the skin as a benign growth in the region affected.
While there are many different means of removing or treating warts (freezing, electrodesiccation, special abrasion, silver nitrate, zinc sulfate, and other chemical means), it is still possible for a wart to grow back after it has been removed.
So, while infected skin tissue can spread the contagion through contact, there are no actual "seeds" to be removed, other than the complete removal of the wart itself or just letting it disappear on its own.
Can a child get genital plantar warts?

Should wart-touched objects be disinfected?
yes wart touched objects should be disinfected because the common wart is highy contagious
No. You cannot get warts from touching warts, and certainly not from touching inanimate objects that warts have touched. Warts are entirely caused by internal factors within the body and blood. Some people are more likely to get them due to heredity. You can have them removed, and at some point they will probably come back. Other people never get them. Usually intense stress or depression brings them out. Warts are contagious, they are caused by papilloma virus infections. It is safer to disinfect anything that has touched them.

How do you get rid of a planters wort?
The most effective and safest way to get rid of a planters wort is by going to your doctor and getting treatment on them. If you try to get them to go away yourself, you may cause them to spread and that would be even worse. There are many different ways to have them treated; I just recently went to the doctor's about some Planters worts I had and the treatment my doctor used on me was liquid nitrogen. It shocked the root and froze it. It hurt a little, much like a bee sting, but is a small price to pay if you want them gone. Depending on how big they are, you may have to go back a couple of times till they disappear completly. The areas where you had the treatment done (well for liquid nitrogen anyways) will hurt for a few days after and will swell and be a pinky/purply color. Avoid direct contact with warts and if other parts of your skin touch them, wash hands immediately after to avoid spreading.
Genital warts do not require treatment. "Invisible genital warts" are of no clinical importance. Most people contract their first HPV infection shortly after they become sexually active. If you are sexually active, you probably have HPV. Do not waste any of your time and energy wondering if you have "invisible genital warts."
What do you do if you have pimples and warts during puberty?

Actually, warts are caused by a type of virus; the quickest way to get rid of them is to see a doctor who can freeze them off with liquid nitrogen or burn them off with a sort of modified arc welder (less painful than it sounds, but if they do it on your feet, you will probably be limping for a week or two).
What are the reasons for the occurrence of warts?
Warts are one of the most frustrating skin lesions that dermatologists treat - because, no matter what therapy may be implemented, they seem to return. A wart is essentially a circumscribed cutaneous elevation resulting from increased growth of the epidermis (skin). It is caused by a virus.
