Default HELP!!!! Acacia tree root suckers

Hi all;

I've got acacia trees in both the front and back yards. I pruned them
both fairly heavily 3-4 years ago. Now, my yards are totally invaded
by little acacia tree suckers.

They grow off the roots of the big trees, and I can't seem to stop
them.

Any ideas?

Thanks a heap,
-Zz

messed up deck? nooo (just don't look for the weld marks near the
discharge)!
actually the mower is much better with the new blades. and power galore, it
does have a sweet engine.

Yep, couldn't get any worse.
I mow rocks with my Murray tractor. Not intentionally, mind you. :-)
