Any suggestions to manage it?

Apart from moving house? I am told low yield tactical nukes are
reasonably effective against it but you should expect some regrowth.

Basically bruise and apply gel formulation glyphosate or dig down with a
large screwriver and pull up every single stem as far down as you can
get. A combination of these will keep it under control but the roots are
so extensive it will take decades to eliminate (forever if there is
somewhere nearby like a railway embankment where it can see the sun).
