How can I get rid of invasive bamboo for good?


Question:Invasive bamboo has spread into my backyard from a neighbor's house. I tried cutting down the trees; however, new shoots appear sometimes within hours. I am desperate to find a solution before the thick roots ruin my home's foundation.

Answers:
You will have to put a root barrier down at the fence line. For Bamboo I think you have to go 24" deep. Then dig up all the bamboo on your side of the fence and spray any shoots with crosbow. Eventually, this will take care of this.


Why would you not want bamboo. Bamboo makes home for animals and even endangere animals.
You would have to actually uproot them. Bamboo grows on the average of 1 foot per day.
Or perhaps after the next time you cut them down, pour some round up on the stumps.
