Hi, im trying to remove my pedals so that I can access the gear and clean it but I have no idea what type of wrench or tool I need to remove this. I tried some tools at work but they are to big to fit inside the damn thing.

A thin-walled socket, typically 14mm or 15mm for square taper crank bolts.

You need a removal tool like this
you want to remove the crank arm to clean the chainring? You may be Overthinking it. But, you may also need a crank arm puller, depending on which model crank/bottom bracket you have. As well as finding the thin walked 14 or 15mm socket.
As others have said, I thin-walled 15 mm socket, or one of these: [https://www.parktool.com/en-us/product/crank-wrench-ccw-5?category=Crank+%26+Bottom+Bracket](https://www.parktool.com/en-us/product/crank-wrench-ccw-5?category=Crank+%26+Bottom+Bracket)
Then, once you get that bolt out, you will need a crank puller: [https://www.parktool.com/en-us/product/universal-crank-puller-for-square-taper-and-splined-cranks-cwp-7?category=Crank+%26+Bottom+Bracket](https://www.parktool.com/en-us/product/universal-crank-puller-for-square-taper-and-splined-cranks-cwp-7?category=Crank+%26+Bottom+Bracket)
