Some tradition remedies from here in old England - Hope they help:)



1) Find an oak apple and crush it to a powder, this should then be mixed
with a strong vinegar and applied to the offending wart/s.

 

2) Take an eel and then cut off its head then rub the wart with the blood
that seeps from the severed wound. Once this is done bury the head in the
ground, as the head rots away the wart will gradually disappear.

 

3) Take as many small stones from a running brook as the number of offending
warts, then put them into a clean white bag and throw it into road,
preferably at a road junction. Then wash each wart in vinegar on seven
consecutive mornings, whoever was unfortunate enough to pick up the white
bag will get the warts and yours will disappear.

 

4) To get rid of warts you must steal from the butchers shop a very small
piece of lean meat. This must then be rubbed on the wart three times from
left to right. The meat must be immediately buried and as it is  you must
say, "As you rot, so depart my warts!"

 

5) To cure a wart the first seen blackberry of the season should be picked
and rubbed over the wart and then thrown away. As the berry either rotted
away or was eaten by some bird or animal the affliction would disappear.

 

6) Take a live snail then rub on every wart whilst reciting three times,
"Wart, wart, on this snails back, go away soon and don't come back". The
snail has then to be impaled on a hawthorn bush by one of its thorns, as the
snail rotted away the warts vanishes.

 

7) Rub the milky juice of the petty spurge (Euphorbia peplus) onto the wart.

 

8) For three consecutive nights, rub the wart with the furry inside of a
broad bean pod, on each occasion bury it in the ground, as the pod rots so
the warts vanish.

 

9) Prick the wart with a pin, and then stick the pin into the trunk of an
ash tree. Next, recite the following rhyme, "Ashen tree, ashen tree, Pray
buy these warts from me". The warts will be transferred to the unfortunate
tree. 

 

10) Cover the wart with Duct Tape and leave in-situ for three days, then rip
off the tape and the wart will peel off with it.

 

11) Take an un-opened pea pod that contains nine peas and rub it on the
warts whilst chanting, "Wart, wart, dry away". Then bury the pod and wait
until it rots by which time the warts will have gone. How would you know how
many peas are in a pod without opening it?

 

12) Apply the 'milk' from the stem of a dandelion directly on the wart, this
cure also works for spots and pimples. It was recommended that the 'milk'
should never put put on healthy skin as it is an irritant.

 

13) Cut an apple in half and then rub one of the halves over the wart, the
two pieces would be bound together and buried, as the fruit rotted then so
the wart disappeared. Alternately you could cut the apple in half, rub one
bit over the wart and then feed it to a pig whilst eating the remaining
half.

 
14) Cut an onion in half and rub one half over the afflicted area. The two
halves must then be tied back together and buried deep in the ground, as the
onion rotted so the warts began to disappear.

 

15) Take 9 leaves of Heart Fever Grass (Dandelion) and 9 Scarlet Pimpernel
or Shepherd's Dial flowers, place in a silk bag which was worn around the
neck. Then every morning and night the bag had to be held over the wart/s
whilst saying:

 "Herb Pimpernel, I have thee found,

Growing, on Christ Jesus ground.

The same gift, Lord Jesus have thee,

When his blood He shed to spare thee.

Herb Grass this evil pass,

And God bless all who wear thee, Amen".
