the whole property is totally engulfed (it seems) in this stupid weed. It's literally everywhere. I pull them out until I think there could not possibly be any more, but then they find a way. I am sure I'm getting all of the taproot, but it's a very common weed in my area, and I think it's just wind or bird dispersed seed. Luckily, I recognize the seedlings, so I pull them out quickly, before they get unmanageable.

p.s. please forgive the trash mess-- we also have lots of raccoons in the area.
