I wonder if you could use something like thread or floss and work that under it?
Don't you worry about touching the palys? And yes, they do like to take hold in a tiny crevice or hole, which is what makes them difficult to get out completely. I would think a floss would have the same effect as cutting, and leave part of foot to grow back.

And thanks to everyone for the responses. Keep them coming, if there are any more ideas.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.
