Beautiful Soup's decompose() method removes a tag as well as its inner content.
Examples
Consider the following HTML document:
my_html = """ <div> <p>Bob is great</p> </div>"""soup = BeautifulSoup(my_html)
To delete both the p tag as well as its inner content:
div_tag = soup.find("div")div_tag.find("p").decompose()div_tag
<div></div>
