Get rid of sand burrs in the yard.?

I have tried Round Up spray on them. Doesn't seem to work so well. Anyone have any ideas, any home remedies, any tricks at all. I have pulled them up - the little devils keep coming back.

Anyone? Anything? I'm this close to using a flame thrower.

Digging pulling them out is the only way, yes that sucks. You need to do it continuously, the seed is impossible to kill. Pulling them before they go to seed is a must. Bagging when you mow will help, sand burrs are annuals and need reseed every summer.
