Last year I trimmed up the bottom of a set of three pine trees that live within close proximity of each other, and this year these weeds started forming beneath them. They're too deeply rooted to pull by hand. I live in zone 6a and have clay soil. I have two questions:

What would be the best method to get rid of them?

What can I do to best prevent new ones / regrowth?

    Dig down a little they shouldn’t be too deep but if they are after you dug closer to the roots cut them and spray 30% vinegar on the fresh cuts. You can spray and let soak/dry then spray again. The 30% vinegar is really strong, use caution of skin/animals and spraying.

    Mulberry trees. Persistence and time. Birds eat the berries and poop the seeds, so there’s a mulberry tree somewhere and birds that like perching above after a snack. They’ll probably be back.
