How can I get rid of mind-your-own-business?

Stefan says: You tell me you have a problem with this plant, which is creeping alongside an area of grass. I wouldn’t endorse what you call your ‘nuclear option’ of covering the entire area with black membrane for a year so everything under it dies, then digging over and laying new turf. If you do this, I think you’ll find that not everything has been eradicated. I suggest you obtain the widest range of selective lawn weed killers you can find, follow the directions for each carefully, but alternate them throughout the summer.
