They are regarded as a pest here and if you don't keep them under
control,
the city council can cut your infested lawn

And exactly what effect is cutting the lawn supposed to have?

If they are cut at the flowering stage, or even before, no weed heads to
blow about later :-))

I usually walk over the lawn every lunch-time and hand pick any flower or
developing head to keep things under control. I also spot spray after
cutting the lawn.
