Tips
In small, contained sites with only one or two plants, it is generally feasible to remove yucca units without any chemicals. Simply remove as much of the plant as possible and take out any new sprouts promptly. Warnings
Be careful when working with or around yuccas, as the leaves are very sharp. Always use caution and follow manufacturer instructions when applying herbicides. Do not apply herbicides to wet yuccas. Writer Bio
