Cloves are a natural remedy for removing skin tags and warts thanks to their antiseptic, antifungal, and healing properties. Their key compound, **Eugenol**, has antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects that help dry out these skin growths. “Cloves also work against viral and fungal infections that often cause warts,” supporting the body’s natural healing.
In addition to fighting infection, cloves act as a drying agent, causing the tissue of skin tags and warts to flake away over time. To use, you’ll need **clove powder** and **coconut or olive oil**. Mix the powder with a few drops of oil until you form a thick paste.
Clean the affected area, then apply the paste directly, fully covering the skin tag or wart. For best results, leave it on for several hours or overnight to allow the cloves to work effectively.
In the morning, remove the covering and gently rinse with warm water. Repeat this process nightly for one to two weeks.
Over time, you should see the growth drying, shrinking, and eventually falling off naturally.
