It can be of various designs and sizes, e.g., a slender hollow or solid body made of metal, plastic or other suitable material in a cylindrical form, or a scissors-like instrument that when activated by closing the two ringed-handles, two or three blunted curved prongs expand in opposite directions. This is a reusable device.)
