    Get two pieces of straw and make a cross with them then get a pin and put it through them, and point it to the wart. After a few days you will see bits of the warts falling off.
    Get a black snail and rub it on the wart three time and put him o a black thorn bush.
    Get forge water and rub it three times of the wart.
