Warts affect most of us from time to time and can be devilishly difficult to get rid of. Try this old cure for them.

Before bedtime soak a small piece of cotton wool in neat cider vinegar then lay directly on wart. Secure with a band aid and leave in place overnight. Repeat this process every night until the wart turns black then disappears-usually in about a week. This Cider vinegar treatment can also be used for verrucas.

For corns and calluses simply soak your feet in a basin of warm water with two dessertspoons of Epsom salts added to it. Dry feet then soak a small piece cotton wool in neat cider vinegar and apply to affected area. Leave for thirty minutes then wash feet and rub briskly with a towel. The result is beautiful soft feet!
