    I walked thru the wrong field with my wool clothes the other day. I'm covered in these stickers. Anyone have a good trick for easier or quicker removal?

    Patience.
    I'm always walking into things like that. Especially on the way in or out. I don't have wool/fleece outer layers, but even briar pants collect these.

    Yeah, like burn them. I've been in that position before. Can't stand picking them off.

    I've heard of using one of those dog hair rakes to get them off. Never tried it myself.

    I just pick them off individually, it's time consuming, but it's the only way I know of that works.
