Granny's gone and done it again

Tired here. Moving appliances to tear out the kitchen carpet and carpet grippers used some alien muscles there.I always thought carpet was glued in. I didn't know it had 'velcro' of sorts to hold the edges in place. The grippers look like yardsticks full of little nails sticking up. How they were able to nail them under that toe space along the front of the kitchen counter, I don't know. The claw hammer didn't want to reach under there. Left the skin from my knuckles under there.
Ive done that. I used a strong flat head screwdriver to get those up. @pertnear09 would know the best way.

try either a pry bar, crowbar or a straight edge screwdriver. And their called "tack strips" used to hold the carpet in place after they stretch it to fit.
I've gotten almost all the carpet out of this house. One more small bedroom to go. Carpet's filthy, smelly and disgusting.

I think they ran out of nails cause they used some big nails and the the wood kept breaking up so I had to use the claw hammer. Otherwise the flat head would have worked
