I don't know about anyone else but the dental floss idea didn't
work at all for me, the floss interferes with the pins.

I had this idea on how to remove the chip easily, but I
haven't tried it. Just get some strong epoxy and glue
onto the top surface of the flashrom something to
act as a handle. After it's dry, use that to pull the
chip out.

JB Weld might work.
