    Spray with SBK, they're in full leaf right now so easy to kill.

    I put a spot killer gel to leaves but the roots are huge I dug out an hours worth but they are the width of a finger n u can't get that skinny bit down below !

    If the spot-killer has done its work you don't have to dig out the plant because it will be dead.

    Use the weedkiller - as Dave says SBK will do the job - and then leave the docks until they are brown and withered.  That will mean the roots are dead too - you don't have to dig them out image
