Skin Tags Or Warts are small, rough skin growths caused by certain strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV). While generally harmless, they can be unsightly, uncomfortable, and persistent. Luckily, there are several natural remedies you can try at home to remove warts safely and gently—without harsh chemicals. These DIY methods rely on easily available ingredients that have antiviral, antibacterial, or skin-peeling properties to target warts at the source.
Below are the most effective natural wart removal remedies you can try at home:
DIY #1 – Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV)
Apple cider vinegar is a well-known home remedy with acidic properties similar to salicylic acid, a common over-the-counter wart treatment. It helps exfoliate the infected skin and may gradually destroy the wart tissue. ACV also has natural antimicrobial properties that may help combat the virus.
How to Use:
- Mix 2 parts apple cider vinegar with 1 part water.
- Soak a cotton ball in the solution and place it directly on the wart.
- Cover with a bandage and leave it on for 3 to 4 hours.
- Repeat daily.
Important: Always dilute ACV to avoid chemical burns or irritation. Do not apply it to broken or sensitive skin.
DIY #2 – Garlic
Garlic contains allicin, a compound with strong antiviral and immune-boosting properties. It helps fight HPV and break down wart tissue over time.
How to Use:
- Crush one garlic clove and mix it with a little water.
- Apply the paste directly to the wart.
- Cover with a bandage and leave it on for a few hours or overnight.
- Repeat daily for 3 to 4 weeks.
You can also rub a raw garlic clove directly on the wart or apply fresh garlic juice.
