How to disable logging using Selenium with Python binding

Question

A simple question: how to completely disable logging when using Selenium from Python, ex code bindings as follows:

browser = webdriver.Chrome()

I tried things like:

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions();
options.add_argument('--log-level 3') 
browser = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options)

or even:

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions();
options.add_argument('--disable-logging') 
browser = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options)

but still the damned chromedriver.log file still appears in every new test run.
