Before trying for any surgical remedy try these home cures for warts–

  • Cover the warts with enough garlic. Put a bandage. Keep it overnight.


    In the morning remove it. Small blisters may appear. Do not remove them.


    Continue the procedure. Within 2 weeks, warts disappear.
  • Rub raw potato on warts many times a day for at least two weeks. It will remove warts.
  • Warts may disappear by rubbing cut onion on the area. It stimulates the circulation of blood.
  • Apply Castor oil twice a day on affected area.
  • Tapping inner part of banana also helps.
  • Crush aspirin and apply on warts. Close it airtight. Do not allow air to pass in.
  • Applying tea tree oil on warts is helpful.
