    Get a pair of clips and clip then off (now)....

    Don't be tempted to spray with weedkiller or you risk killing the tree. You have to trim them off with secateurs.

    what do you meen suckers

    They are called sucker branches. They are useless branches that suck the life out of a tree.

    o ok so cutting them off is pruning rite
