Natural Home Removal of the Common Wart

Warts are small benign growths usually found on hands and feet and caused by the viral infection HPV (human papilloma virus). About 75 percent of all people will get a wart sometime in their lives, according to MotherNature.com. The key to success with a home remedy is to be persistent for several weeks. And of course you don't want to injure yourself with the home remedy.

  1. Vitamin A

    • Squeeze some liquid from a capsule that contains 25,000 international units of natural vitamin A and rub it onto the wart. Apply once a day. Vitamin A will not work if taken orally.

    Grapefruit Extract

    • Rub a drop of grapefruit extract on the wart, then cover with a cloth or bandage. Repeat three to four times a day, according to Natural-HomeRemedies.com.

    Aloe Vera

    • Break a piece of aloe vera stalk and rub the liquid directly on the wart area. The natural acids in the aloe vera liquid will dissolve the wart and soften the skin, according to the website Positive Health Steps.
