If you have the time, you can pull these plants out by hand. I've done it but you need to be very careful to cover up completely. Wear long gloves (such as dishwashing gloves) and a spring weight coat. Tape the wrists of the coat so you don't accidentally expose any skin. Be sure to pull the roots up carefully, they'll be long and lead off in many different directions. Then be sure to wash all of the clothes you were wearing through a hot cycle in the washer.
