You could try clipping them off instead of pulling them out. Just use a flush cutter (or as close to flush) and cut them down to the wood. This is what most do when taking our trim, as it can cause more damage to get the nails/staples out.
Comment on How do I fix this?
nieceandtows@programming.dev 8 months agoSo those nails seem to be staples. How do I pull them out? They don’t show up on the outside. I tried hitting them with a hammer gently, but they don’t seem to come back out. Do I cut them off using a multi tool?

You can cut them with a multi tool if you have one, no harm in that. You essentially just need them out of the way so you can put new nails.
