Warts are those unsightly tiny little bumps that grow almost anywhere, but are most commonly seen developing between the fingers, on your feet, and on the face. Though normally not painful, warts can be very annoying as they can grow in places that can easily catch the attention. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), nearly 20 million American are carriers of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV), the virus responsible for warts.
Tea Tree Essential Oil – Big 4 oz –
100% Pure & Natural
Melaleuca Therapeutic Grade 
While warts will often go away without any help, in many cases nothing seems to get rid of them. If you think your stubborn warts need surgical removal, but if you want to manage warts without surgery, essential oils can do a great job. There are several essential oils that can be a real boon to wart sufferers, and one of them is tea tree essential oil.
According to several studies, tea tree oil is effective against warts due to its natural antiviral and immune boosting properties. In addition, tea tree oil also helps in taming an overactive immune system. In a study by the Department of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, the water-soluble terpinen-4-ol component of tea tree oil was found to suppress the production of pro- inflammatory mediators in human monocytes, a type of white blood cell that is part of the human immune system.

Treating Children’s Warts
Children under 12 years old have sensitive skin and are prone to irritations, so it is important to dilute the tea tree essential oil before use. For children and those with sensitive skin follow the following method: mix 10 drops of tea tree oil to 2 tsp. apple cider vinegar in a clean bottle, and shake well. Using a cotton ball, apply twice a day to the wart, carefully avoiding the surrounding area. Cover with a band-aid.

Is it true that the wart can go into the bone?
It’s no true, as far as I know.
My kids have had warts, as painful as they are I don’t bring them to the doctor . I put tea tree oil on them , just a dab & than over it. It has to be covered. So I put a small piece of a cotton ball with a drop of tea tree oil than i put a bandit on it or tape. It depends on how big the wart is if it’s a really big one it may take awhile. Tiny ones may take about 2 weeks .I change it every other day scrub it a little& wash it .& put clean stuff on it .
Wow…I did not know tea tree oil is an effective treatment for warts. I am going to try it. I am always in favor of natural treatments over medication!
