bamboo spreading out of control

Pieter Smith asked 14 years ago

I need advice of how to get rid of a chinese type bamboo(reed) that is spreading through the garden from two clumps. The bed is covered with a membrane with pebbles on top of the membrane. the runners are under the membrane with the shoots coming through, that makes it impossible to pull out by hand.

Bamboo can be very invasive, but it is a grass and susceptible to Roundup. If you cut it down and spray the re-growth with Roundup, you will get control, but it might need more than one application.
