I've used those small screwdrivers, but also nails or thumbtacks - with the pointed end snipped flat. They're good because you have a wide base on one end to apply pressue, and a thin pin-sized area on the other side to transfer the force to the pin.
I have an old cutting board I work on, and there is a hole in the handle (lord only knows why, maybe to hang it up?). I find it's a great surface for pin removal as I can simply line up the pin overtop of that hole, so the pin has some place to fall into, and the rest of the figure is supported by the board.
