Bovine papillomatosis is the viral infection commonly affecting heifers and milch animals. Warts are usually found on the head, neck, shoulders and sensitive parts of body i.e. the vaginal mucosa. The present study was conducted on eight heifers having wart on different parts of body in an organized cattle farm. The major aim of the study was to determine the cure rate of papillomatosis in cattle after four weeks using different treatment regimen i.e. Thuja, Anthiomaline and prepared autogenous vaccine. Autogenous vaccines were prepared from chemically treated warts taken from animals in the herd. The autogenous vaccine is more appropriate to have the strain of papillomavirus causing the wart problem in the herd than commercial vaccines. The study revealed that the homeopathic medicine Thuja (Thuja- 30) showed 100 per cent cure rate with no reoccurrence followed by Anthiomaline which showed 75 per cent reduction in wart size in infected animals. The administration of prepared autogenous vaccine did not show complete sloughing of wart in affected animal therefore, had zero efficiency.
