''[[Aloe marlothii]]'' A.Berger occurs in Botswana, Mozambique, Swaziland and northern South Africa. A leaf decoction is taken with porridge to treat stomach-ache and intestinal worms. The leaf pulp is rubbed on nipples to wean children. The burned dried leaves are mixed with snuff. ''Aloe marlothii'' is planted as a live fence. The leaves show strong in-vitro anthelminthic activity. Ash from the leaves, mixed with maize, effectively protects the latter from storage pests. The dried exudate was formerly traded under the name ‘Natal aloe’. ''Aloe marlothii'' is an important bee plant. The roots dye yellow.
