Self-degrading fibers and associated methods of use and manufacture

A subterranean treatment fluid comprising a base fluid and a plurality of self-degrading fibers, the self-degrading fibers comprising an outer shell, wherein the outer shell of at least one of the self-degrading fibers comprises at least one material selected from the group consisting of:

• an aliphatic polyester;
• a poly(lactide);
• a poly(glycolide);
• a poly(ε-caprolactone);
• a poly(hydroxybutyrate);
• a polyanhydride;
• an aliphatic polycarbonate;
• a poly(orthoester);
• a poly(urethane);
• a poly(hydroxy ester ether);
• a poly(phosphazene);
• and any combination thereof, wherein the fiber concentration is about 0.1% to about 5.0% of the treatment fluid and a core liquid, wherein the core liquid catalyzes or facilitates degradation of the outer shell and comprises at least one material selected from the group consisting of:
• an alcohol, an acid, an aqueous-based fluid, and any combination thereof.
