I've found the cuticle scissors to work really well, but for those of you who may be fishermen who don't have cuticle scissors, the Sabiki rig (fish hook) which Drew mentioned may be an alternative. Not able to post link, so a 'google' image will get you there."Now all we have to find is the correct fish hook to use, LOL!!"
Peaches, I use a pair of cuticle scissors. The kind with the pointy curved tip. It seems to work on all my carts, but I haven't tried it on the green cig ones yet.

My husband tells me they can be found at Wal-Mart.
