When ask about my neighbor says she planted the clumping kind of bamboo. Well it is running about fifteen feet over to my home. At this point I am having a landscaper look at the problem and probably take up around twenty square feet of sod, pull all stems, put down a barrier (that may or may not work) and treat with a very strong root killer that is carcinogenic. Any other suggestions appreciated.
