Default how to remove "hitch hikers"

I only know them as hitch hikers, they are the litlte seedling things that always seem to attach to you clothes when in the field, or woods. Just wondering what is a good way to remove them from your gear. I have tried removing them while they were wet (nothing), tried while they were dry (nothing) tried a old comb (nothing). Wondering what you guys might be using, I do remember that BPS did sell something a few years back,but I am unable to find it now. Thanks

to be honest I use my utilitly knife I keep on my belt ( i keep it Razor sharp) and i put it at a 90 degree angle and sweep it down my shirt and it gets rid of them like a charm!

similar to YJRR but I use a knife that I have. simply put it a slight angle just like shaving. works great.
