go to a doctor to get it frozen off.

Callus remover.

Put a couple drops on, let it harden.   Peals off.  Work your way down into the root until a bit of blood spots form, that is when you kill the root.

I've killed two warts this way.

They sell a commercial aerosol to do it yourself freeze warts off now. Think it's made by Compound W, but not sure.

Duct tape.  Serious.

Google Duct tape and warts.  It apparently works.

Use compound w or similar product then use thuja occidentalis tincture (in ETOH), to get the remaining roots.

Some other wart remedies include these:


Take an equal amount of brown soap and spit, mix the two together, and make a plaster. Apply it on the warts and leave it 24 hours. When removed, the warts and roots will come off.


Make the wart bleed. Put one drop of blood on seven grains of corn. Feed the corn to an old black hen.


Tie a human hair around the wart and leave it in place for several days. Remove the hair and place it in a nail hole in a green tree. Replace the nail, driving it into the hair so it will be stuck in the tree. When the hair rots, the wart will disappear.


Put a drop of milkweed juice on a wart or rub a piece of wild turnip on the wart several times.


Gather the roots of pokeweed. Fry them in hot grease. Apply the grease to the wart. After four or five applications, the wart should come off.

Duofilm.  Over the counter.

Duct tape, yes duct tape

keep the wart covered with a piece of duct tape.

spraying Liquid Nitrogen (freezing the wart) stimulates an immune response to destroy the wart.

cutting it open or ripping at it - good way to get an infection and or spread the wart

try any of the commercial wort removers first before going to the doctor, dont give it a chance to get bigger, I get them on my hand alot, and I had one stubborn one did not want to leave, it took me 6 office visits to kill it, oh, and the stuff at the doctors office burns like hell, usually a blister forms and after it dries up it and the blister should peel off.

My wife had a wart on her hand.  She tried the freezing kit you can buy in the drugstore, and it did not work.  Then she heard that you can put some finely minced garlic under a bandaid over the wart.  She's been doing that for the past few days, and the wart is going away.

From my dendrology class many moons ago; Thuja Occidentalis is the latin name for white cedar trees.  Other than that I have no idea what part of the tree is made into a remedy for warts.

I used bandaids.  Had them really bad on my fingers when I was younger.  Just kept a bandaid on them for a couple of weeks.  They just pulled right off.

One time I noticed a small wart forming and bit the sucker straight off (back of my hand). I was lucky, it worked and there were no ill effects.

Doesnt cost anything to try.  Cheaper than a doctor and liquid nitrogen.

It's a anti-microbial, anti-fungal, anti-neoplastic homeopathic solution usually ~65% in ethanol.

The PDR will back me on this.

I've used and prescribed this for warts before and it works great.

The problem is with most therapies once you get to the unaffected dermis the treatment is painful, this is when the thuja takes over.

Weller 100 wt or higher soldering gun.  Destroys the wart, sterilizes, cauterizes all in one step.

Use individual pennies for each wart.

Take one penny per wart at a time and rub it in a counter clockwise circular motion while saying three times " Go away Wart, Go Away Wart, Go Away Wart then toss it in the river. In three weeks the warts will dissapear.

Sure, if you want to take your time.

I'd use a 4-flute center-cutting endmill in a Bridgeport.
Cutting fluid optional, but watch your feedrate.

freezing them is not really freezing them off - here is how it works - you need to inflame the area so that your body will pay attention to it and send its little fighters to fight off the virul infection - burn, pick, poke, freeze, pinch, chemical, whatever - it all brings attention to that area

I haven't tried the freezie stuff.

About 10 years ago I had two warts on my hand, so I got some little kit, Dr Scholl's I think.  It had little pads, and you put those on the wart with a bandaid over it.  They were like mild wart eating acid or something.  Took a few days but worked great.

I need to do it again.
