    Warts can be got rid of by putting as many stones as there are warts in a bag and leaving the bag somewhere on the road, if someone happens to pick up the bag they will get the warts which the former owner has lost.
    Another cure is. Rub the juice out of the seed of a garden poppy on the wart for a couple of times.
