I have an over abundance of mimosa trees in the yard. They are trying to take over everything. They are also annoying in that the roots of these trees travel above the ground for several feet and make it very difficult to mow the yard. We just bought this place last year and they are coming up everywhere. They also grow very fast and everytime the wind blows a little the limbs are everywhere. The neighboring property is also filled with them and they are hanging right over us causing more to grow right in the ditch lines. Is there anything that can be done to get rid of these trees other than constantly trying to cut them down? I have one in the yard that I would like to keep, but I don't care if I never see another one again! The pea pods things they drop go everywhere and its really amazing how quickly these trees take up growth. Also, does anyone happen to know the lifespan of these trees because one very large one we currently have is running a lot of what looks like sap and seems to be dying. Any advice? Thank you.
