One thing you can try is to dig up as much as you can of the roots, then pour Pramatol on them. It is a ground sterilizer and kills everything when used right. There are others you can use but you might want to talk to a person at your local nursery for advice. After having a large yucca removed, the roots may continue to sprout, especially if they were chopped up and scattered in the process. Where you had one large yucca removed, dozens of smaller ones may sprout for the next few years. Use a small paint brush to apply Ortho Brush-B-Gon, Poison Ivy Killer, full-strength, to the small yuccas as they sprout. It may take a few years for all the potential roots to sprout and several applications to kill each sprout, but you can eradicate the yucca with perseverance and poison.

What animal is a symbiotic relationship to a yucca?
It's a mutualistic relationship. The yucca plant (Mexico, Caribbean and Southern US) can't pollinate itself to grow more seeds. The yucca moth pollinates the plant and lays its eggs inside the plant. When the moth larvae hatch, they feed on the seeds of the yucca plant, but the plant only lets a certain number grow, so that they don't eat all the seeds. So by pollinating the plant, the moth develops food for its larvae and the plant as well as the moth can survive and continue. And the adult moths emerge from their underground cocoons exactly when the yucca plants are in flower, in early summer.
