How Do I Use Hikers Wool? ...
Stop immediately if you feel a hot spot and apply Hikers Wool as directed....don't wait until the blister forms. Apply a generous amount directly to the tender area then replace sock and footwear. Depending on the location of your hotspot / blister you may not need to completely remove your sock. If the problem is in your toe area, remove your sock and wrap the wool around the affected area.

Hikers Wool will not form lumps or roll into a hard ball. After a few uses you will become accustomed to the quantity required.
