If I remember right Wendell showed a number of us how to do it and he used a dremel and cut through the base (where the branch joins).

A word of caution: power tools and water. Enough said??? Be careful and very aware of what is wet.

Dremel makes a couple of battery operated rotary tools.

I have fragged frogspawn by just snapping off the heads.
it all depends on how much room between there is.
some are much more compact than others.
HTH.

I just brake them apart by hand as well. If the heads are too close together, I'm not sure how to do it though.

Yes there is about 2 1/2" between heads so I will try to hand break them. Wish me luck !!!!
