When I was in the same situation, I offered it on Freecycle, and was able to give it all away to people who brought their own spades and dug up as much as they wanted. I didn't have to do anything! Not saying it will work for you, but it's worth a try. I was lucky in that mine was growing in a raised bed built of concrete, so it was just there and not all over the garden. That bed is now a pond!

what sort of bamboo, and how big is it?
Can you supply a photo?

My only input is that it grows sideways under the soil and is very tough o dig up
I have planted a small bit of bamboo in my garden and its only 3 foot high and under control
Think we need more info please Julia
? Do you like bamboo
? Do you want to place a bit in a medium sized pot to display
? How big is the area covered
? Would you consider spraying it with killer to clear the site
? What do you want to grow in its place
