When I lived in Texas the little wire flat was very common for me. The wire comes from truck tires that fly apart. Anyway if I couldn't pull the wire out with my fingers I would "tweeze" it with my front teeth. Not exactly the healthiest thing but hey, it worked.
20 minutes spent fixing a flat that culminated in my tweezing the wire out of the tread led me to include a tiny set of tweezers in my emergency kit. It must work, haven't had a flat since!
