Solder wick.

You don't have a proper desolder tool, then? ;-)

I have several solder suckers. In close quarters sometimes solder wick does
the trick, and it always works. I've got one of those big blue nasty
things, and a couple of smaller aluminum solder suckers. In close quarters
I still find myself reach for the solder wick.

None of those little solder suckers compare to a real properly
functioning desoldering station. When I spent a summer working at a
fiends stereo repair shop we had the Hako deoldering stations and I
could desolder blown output modules faster than you could even uncoil
your solder wick.
