"One of the most effective
remedies to employ for toenail fungus is to
put tea tree oil on it. You should specially
apply this oil beneath your nails so that
it manages to seep into the skin between your
nails and toe and can begin working on it.
It is better that you dilute it with an equal
amount of olive oil and then apply it. This
is because tea tree oil is an extremely strong
product. While it will kill any fungus and
bacteria that are residing in your toenails,
it may also damage your skin in the process...Another
remedy you can use to cure toenail fungus
is vinegar. You can actually rub vinegar to
your toenail with a wad of cotton soaked in
it. This will help to get rid of the fungus
very effectively. If you use organic vinegar,
it will work better. You can also use highly
mentholated substances to kill the fungus.
For instance, you can rub Vicks on your toenails.
This will help to literally "choke"
the fungus to death. You can also use substances
like toothpaste and mouthwash. These have
strong properties that kill germs and bacteria
and will work very well when applied and left
on in concentrated quantities on a fungal
infection" (3)
