You have to pull each one out by hand, but wait until they are big enough to deal with. I know they are an eyesore, I had them all over my rock garden, in my grass, in amongst my tulips. I am just now starting to deal with them; I just pull them out, tedious, but better safer.

Tell me, why do you make every word capitalized ?
