not helpful(no offence, but its useless to him unless he knows what you are talking about)

I recommend either using a desoldering braid, or a desoldering vacuum

idk how to use a braid but for a desoldering vacuum, just heat the solder til it melts and press the button on the vacuum and it sucks the solder up. it might take several tries to get all of it
