I have a rogue tree growing under my deck.
I hack the branches off, but each year it comes back bigger.

Is there some way I can kill it, or do I have to tear up my dig and
dig it out?

If the leaves are still on it, spray it with Roundup. Takes a few days to
see results, but it won't survive and it won't come back because Roundup
kills all the way to the root. But if there's anything else under there
that you want to save, cover it before spraying with Roundup since that
stuff will kill anything. Grass, flowers, weeds, big trees even, if you had
enough of the stuff.
