Daffodils - How do I get rid of them?

[burstingbug]

Outside our front door is a little flower bed attached to our bay window.
This year it was over flowing with daffodils, the variety that have half a dozen small flowers on one stem and smell awful. (We've only lived here for 6mths)
How do I get rid of them, obviously been there for years as some bulbs were huge and planted deeply and thick long roots on them.
I have dug up a lot of bulbs, but still have some remaining. There were that many they wasn't alot of soil between each one, they were on top of each other - a total mess!
Will they come up again even if I get the bulbs out if some roots are still in the ground?

If you cut off the foliage as soon as it appears then eventually they will die.

But if you've dug the bulbs up and just left a few roots they can't grow anyway. I bet some old neighbour would love them.

Can they still sprout from roots alone? hope to get the remaining bulbs up tomorrow.

Ok.
I have kept some smaller bulbs and left a bit of stem on them.
One old dear did comment and say ' they're lovely, come up every year'. Ooooops didn't tell her that they won't in future as I was wrestling with them

They can't sprout from just the roots. There has to be some of the 'Basal Plate' left, which is the bit at the bottom that the roots grow out of.
