...
on my lawn i keep getting new trees sprouting up which i mow with the

grass,
is there any way of getting rid of these without damaging the grass, i
though of cutting them about 2 inches from the ground and injecting weed
killer into the stems, would that work or is there a better idea


If there aren't very many just pull them up. If they grow back when you do
that try allowing leaves to form and then painting them with systemic weed
killer using a brush.
