Perhaps water could be used to control them.

I'm fairly confident that once these weeds break off they only deposit seeds and don't come back to life. Acting like they are some sort of animal seeking water is wild. 😆

Those things are evil. Painful to handle, impossible to get rid of. I did have one that seemed to be seeking something. It kept rolling and bashing into my gate. So I opened the gate and set it free. I waved goodbye as it rolled down the street. The funny thing to watch here is when they roll across roads in herds. We just stop and let them go by

tumbleweeds are a great example of how evolution isn't an intelligent or beneficial process like everyone thinks... imagine a field of bushes... we'll call em stayweeds. these bushes live in a valley. they grow, drop seeds, die, and the seeds grow the next generation. sometimes there's mutations. some mutations give that bush an advantage, and it's seeds thrive better, and the mutation becomes the new normal for a stayweed. voila evolution. now one day, a mutation occurs where a stayweed has a weak crappy stem. wind blows, crappy stem breaks, stayweed gets blown out of the valley and tumbles for miles and miles and miles, dropping seeds all over the place, creating a new generation, not of stayweeds, but of crappy weak stemmed tumbleweeds... all of which will repeat this cycle and spread throughout all the lands everywhere, wildly bypassing the stayweeds in proliferation, all due to a crappy weak little stem that snapped off in the first windstorm...

Wrong. The wind blows them and their seeds fall off. The tumbleweed is completely dead! I love hitting them with my car! They explode!
