I know, right?
They can be really rampant here in my neighborhood, too.
But I have had friends who lived in neighborhoods that require the lawns be kept like a golf course.
If I was stuck in a godforsaken community like that, I'd plant them in my flowerbeds for the bees. AND deadhead them after they close up to keep the seeds down.
As it is, I keep a container planted with them inside my critterproof veggie cage to feed to my house rabbit without the wild bunnies getting them all. I pick late in the day, after the bees have had at them and before the seeds happen.
