Even easier is to put a bandaid with Neosporin on it overnight. Then in the morning, scrape your fingernail over the splinter in the opposite direction in went in. It will scrape right out with absolutely no pain! (10/23/2008)

You can also get it out if you put some Iodine around it. It takes awhile thought - a couple of hours, but no pain as well. (10/23/2008)

Very clever idea. I wish I knew it when I was teaching. Thanks. (10/24/2008)

I've also heard of people putting a little white glue on it and then peeling off the glue and splinter after the glue dries. (10/25/2008)
