I've tried this on a little flat one but it won't budge with this method, so now I'm trying a piece of garlic bandaid to it...LOL... I'm greatful this one is only a day and night method, it reeks...
Are there any natural remedies for age spots?

Hi dorri,
I removed a big white mole that was on my stomach, and a smaller white skin tag on my inner thigh also. My OB/GYN (who is a country girl) told me how her mom use to remove them, so I tried it and it worked. I'm about to try it on a larger one (brown, pencil eraser size) on my chest. (Not looking forward to that one, as it will probably take longer.)
O.K.....I used dental floss, (her mom used thread)
tied it tightly around the mole or tag, knotted it, and repeated the tying around it 3 or 4 times, knotting it again. As tight as I could stand it. I put an antibiotic lotion on it, and covered them with a bandage. I replaced the bandages, and re-applied the anti biotic daily. I also tied more floss around the mole/tags as they began to dry up, to keep it really tight, and make sure no blood supply was getting to them. After a week to 10 days, they were gone. This has been over a year ago, and they haven't returned. It wasn't painful, but it did sting a little.
Oh yeah, could you explain the baking soda thing to me? What were you doing?
