The Grass Doctor

I need to rid my front yard of Bindis before they turn prickly, What do the plants look like? flowers?

An Aussie, I have thick Buffalo grass but each summer out comes the Bindi. I am resolving to get rid of them (pull them out) so We can enjoy the summer grass barefoot, but there are a few weedy plants coming through the buffalo. I've got clover, which i am happy to leave there, One weedy plant with tiny blue flowers, One with tiny daisy-shaped yellow flowers One with a reddish-purple stems and green leaves like that of clover, and One with small yellow flowers like those of clover, and lastly, THere is the one I think it probably is, Which is completely green, but with tiny soft (at the moment) burrs all over looking like small venus fly-traps. One of these is Bindi, or Bindi-eye, whichever you call it, and at the moment I am pulling It all up, but there is only one day of holidays left and I need to be just picking the right one, but which one is it?

1. I lived in Aussie for a long time and pulled many a out of my feet and toes. In the spring time (now) they look a little like flat parsley and are a pretty lush green colour. The little spikey bits are soft and friendly right now and are in the centre of the cluster. I don't recall there being any flower per se.
