  1. Apple cider vinegarVinegar has been used for countless years to treat different types of conditions such as poison ivy, stomach ache, and even diabetes. ACV can be used to treat warts. Vinegar being an acetic acid is capable of killing certain types of viruses and bacteria upon contact.
  2. Duct tape occlusion: This is one of the low risk approach that won't hurt to give a try. Although this method is extremely slow and can take up to 2 months until you're able to file off the wart completely but it is still used by many.
  3. Salicylic acid: An extremely affordable and readily available option. Especially if you're looking for over the counter solutions, then this might be it. Although the concentration that you get over the counter might be enough to kill the wart. In case you're unable to get rid of the plantar wart with the over the counter concentration, you can always reach out to your doctor to get the right concentration of salicylic acid prescribed that will help you get rid of the wart.
  4. Clear nail polishClear nail polish is one of the at-home wart removal remedies that is said to suffocate the virus inside the wart. However this is an anecdotal wart remedy for which there isn't much evidence that exists. But it is still widely used and seems to work for people. If anything, nail polish can be a protective coating for your wart which results in "suffocating" it to have it go away.

You may even use professional devices at home such as Aven Buzz Wart Remover Pen to get rid of warts quickly and effectively.
