Anything apple cider vinegar is garbage.
I stuffed with a plantar wart for 2 years that wouldn't go away even after going to the doctor multiple times.
I tried ACD on a cotton ball held in place with duct tape and within a week it turned black and a few days later i scrubbed it off and it never came back.

Stick a wad of chewed tabacco on a wasp/bee sting.
Funny story about that when I was 15 I was throwing a football with my older cousin. He was a chain smoker. One time after he caught the ball he dropped it real quick, and reached into his back pocket and broke up a cigarette, and started shoving it up his nose. I was dumbfounded. I didn't know he had gotten stung by a wasp in his nose, and I was wtf is he that addicted to tobacco that he needs to skip the lighting it up step, and just straight up shove it into his lungs.

One that absolutely does work is garlic to remove warts. I had a wart on the inside of my forefinger and one on my thumb that have been there for as long as I can remember. Have picked them off only to have them grow back. Tried freezing, and they grew back. Then finally tried the garlic method. Cut a clove of garlic in half and rubbed it on the wart for about 15 minutes. Did this maybe 4 times over the span of a month or so. Both went away after about a month and have been gone ever since.

Stepped on a rusty nail. Bitch of a mom wouldn't do anything about it. Hurt like hell, hobbling around and the old lady down the street felt sorry for me. So, she
made a Bread poultice. I didn't believe her, but at that point was willing to try anything.
Here's the formula:
Warm the milk in a small pan on low heat.
Turn off the stove, remove the pan from heat, and let it cool so it's warm to the touch — not too hot.
Place the slice of bread in the pan and let it soften.
Stir the milk and bread to make a paste.
Apply the paste to the skin and leave on for 15 minutes.
She had me leave it on all night and when I woke up and took it off it had sucked a bunch of gross shite out and it healed completely in like a day.

When I was in middle school I watched one of my dads employees weld for like 30 minutes and I wasnt wearing a welding helmet.
Woke up in the middle of the night and thought I was going to go blind. Couldnt see a things and my eyes were like oozing thick liquid. Painful as hell.
Dad cut a onion in half and just laid them on my eyes. Pain went away in about an hour.
The old wives tell on that one is to wear a freaking welding helmet when you watch someone weld.

I don't know if it qualifies as as Old Wives Tales, but after a crawfish boil, someone recommended rubbing my hands on the stainless steel partition in between the sinks. I did that and the crawfish smell went away. Tried it several times after and it's 50/50 that it'll work. It's weird, I haven't figured out the rhyme or reason but it has worked before.
I wash my hands and then wash them with lemon juice. The lemon juice does a pretty good job.

the apple cider vinegar on a skin tag works, it just takes awhile to happen and there could be a slight chemical burn
