Tea Tree Oil A top natural remedy. Its anti-inflammatory and antiviral properties may dry out the tag over time. Requires patience and consistent use.
Apple Cider Vinegar Highly popular for its acidity, which may break down tissue. Can irritate sensitive skin, so apply with caution and protect surrounding areas.
Dental Floss or Thread A classic method. Tying off the tag cuts blood flow, causing it to fall off in days. Effective but slightly risky if not sterile.
Freezing (DIY Cryotherapy Kits) Mimics professional cryotherapy. Kits from drugstores can be effective, though results vary. Safer than cutting but still may leave marks.
Castor Oil and Baking Soda Paste A gentle method used for generations. Can take weeks to work but is very skin-friendly.
Vitamin E Oil Promotes healing and can dry out small tags. Works slowly but with minimal irritation.
Garlic Paste Potent but irritating. Garlic’s enzymes can break down tissue, but skin burns are common.
1. Nail Polish An internet myth. Some claim it "suffocates" the tag, but it can cause inflammation and isn't recommended.
