You can contract HPV (the virus that causes all kinds of warts) by walking barefoot in warm and moist environments, such as gym locker rooms and public swimming pools. The virus thrives in such environments, and can get into the skin through cracks, cuts and scrapes on feet. The virus can also penetrate skin which has been exposed to water for a long period of time.
Thankfully, plantar warts can be treated with medical procedures as well as over the counter topical solutions (Wartanol, etc). Unfortunately, HPV is not as easy to treat.
There isn't a definiate way to get planter warts it just happens.
You are probably referring to "plantar" warts. The word 'plantar' is referring to the bottom surface of the foot. The warts are caused by a non-living entity known as a virus; in this case, (usually) the human papilloma virus (HPV). This virus enters the skin of the foot if there is a skin lesion, or when the individual may be ill or when their immune system may be otherwise compromised (such as during times of different medications). Frequently, the virus enters the skin of a normal, healthy, person as well. Since the incubation time associated with the virus is so long, it is virtually impossible to know with any confidence when a particular person picked up a particular virus. However, public showers are certainly associated with transmission of the virus.
A plantar wart is a wart on the bottom of the foot, a particularly inconvenient place for a wart, since it will constantly be irritated when weight is placed on the foot by standing or walking. Other than that, they occur for the same reasons as any other kind of wart; certain fungi and viruses can cause warts to develop.
Genital warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Over 100 types of HPVs have been identified; about 40 of these types have the potential to infect the genital area.
About 90% of genital warts are caused by two specific types of the virus (HPV-6 and -11), and these HPV types are considered "low risk," having a low cancer-causing potential. Other HPV types have been strongly associated with premalignant changes and cervical cancers in women. HPV-16 is responsible for about 50% of cervical cancers, and types 16, 18, 31, and 45 together account for 80% of cancers.
Common warts are not the same as genital warts and are caused by different HPV types that infect the skin.
Genital warts are indirectly associated with use of birth control pills due to increased sexual contact without the use of barrier protection, multiple sex partners, and having sex at an early age.

How do you get rid of small warts under eye?
If the wart in on the lower eye lid (inside the line of the lower lashes), you need to have it removed by a ophthamologist who is a "lid specialist". I have had this done a couple of times on both upper and lower lids, as they seem to come back. If it's on the skin outside of the eye lash line, a dermatologist or other doctor can apply liquid nitrogen to "burn" off the wart, and it will fall off in about 10 days.
