Its a bummer, you have to cut them off, they will rob your tree of food and energy, if they ar comming from the trunk, you can try "Tree wrap" this may help to keep them from retuning.

You need to cut them off as they grow. They're taking energy from the upper part of the tree.

You can't really stop them except by fertilizing for next year. You do need to cut them off as they sap the strength of the tree to grow.
