Many people turn to home remedies for wart removal. Here are six natural options backed by tradition and anecdotal success:

**Apple Cider Vinegar**: “Soak a cotton ball in vinegar, place it on the wart, and tape it overnight.” This may help peel the wart over time.

**Garlic**: Crush fresh garlic and apply directly to the wart daily. Garlic contains allicin, which may fight the virus causing warts.

**Banana Peel**: Rub the inside of a banana peel on the wart at night and cover it with a bandage. “The enzymes and antioxidants may soften the wart.”

**Tea Tree Oil**: Dab twice daily. This essential oil has antiviral properties, but “dilute it with a carrier oil if it irritates your skin.”

**Aloe Vera**: Apply fresh aloe gel daily. It’s known for soothing skin and may help gradually reduce wart size.

**Duct Tape**: Cover the wart for six days. Then soak, scrub gently with a pumice stone, and repeat. This method is said to “irritate the wart, triggering the immune system.”

Always consult a doctor if warts persist or worsen.
