Hi, Everyone.
I have a section of my yard that I have essentially let go for the past couple years that I am now in the process of rehabilitating. I have a very large number of these saplings that have grown in the area I would like to care for. They are around 1" in diameter, but they get much larger. They grow all over my property.
My question is, "is it possible to handle these without having to dig out the roots for every one of them?" Would cutting them down as low as possible and using some kind of chemical help the situation at all?
There are dozens all over and digging them all out would be very difficult. I intend to use the area as just a regular yard space that I mow regularly.

You could and should cut. As it is your yard you could cut any green very often. That’s slow but would work. You are willing to treat chemically, use care to protect yourself. Locate and cut down the mother? Somewhat upwind maybe?
