In one embodiment, the method comprises a method of treating tar resident in a well bore comprising providing a tar-treating additive comprising one or more silicates introducing the tar-treating additive into the well bore; and allowing the tar-treating additive to react with the tar resident in the well bore so as to at least partially reduce the adhesiveness of the tar.
