Consuming them is another possible form of control! :D
Throughout my amateur culinary career, I found that plants considered weeds in some countries, are often staples in the cuisine of another. Examples are buckwheat (used to be considered bird feed in Cyprus, where I live, but regular food in many countries and now most of the world, including Cyprus), purslane (one of our best Cypriot national salads is made with it), and common mallow (we fry it with eggs and, again, it's one of our favorite national dishes).
Greetings dear @alexanderalexis, thank you for your valuable visit, what you mention is very true there are many plants that can be considered weeds in crops but can be edible or have medicinal benefits. That is why they are currently considered arvenses, because some of them apart from the benefits mentioned above, can also provide benefits to the agricultural ecosystem such as percentages of proteins suitable for cattle feed.
See you later, have a great week.
