The are flower that turn into the Spurs you get in your feet,clothes, & shoes. Again I use vinegar and water solutions. My yard looked like it snowed I had so many white ones. Make sure you spray before you mow,as mowing will only spread the seeds.
you cannot use vinegar on lawns without killing the lawn....http://eartheasy.com/grow_lawn_care.htm
I just read an idea and I haven't tried yet but might be the solution - boiling water.
If they are goat head weeds (sounds like it to me), the only way I have found to get rid of them without toxic chemicals is to pull each one up and put in the trash. The seeds seem to even defy burning them (I live on a farm and some of the weeds get burned out). The earlier you get them, the easier they are to remove and the stickers are still soft. Unfortunately, the only information I found online confirms my experience with them. https://www.hunker.com/13427797/how-to-get-rid-of-goat-head-weeds
