- Warts:- Another cure for warts was to cut the wart with a horse's hair.
Another cure for warts was a snail it should not be looked for, the snail was rubbed to the wart.
The old people said if you wanted to remove warts, to put a notch on an elder twig, and then throw it away. Whosoever would be so unlucky as to find the twig was supposed to get the wart.
