Select Fresh Figs: Choose fresh, unripe figs from the tree for the best results. The latex is more abundant in unripe figs.

Apply Pressure: Gently squeeze the fig near the stem to release the milky latex. Be careful not to damage the fig too much.

Collect the Latex: Hold a small glass vial or container under the tip of the fig stem. Let the latex drip into the vial.

Repeat as Needed: Continue this process with more figs until you have collected the desired amount of latex.

Note: Fig latex may cause skin irritation, so wearing gloves is recommended.
