The message
from (Nick Maclaren) contains these words:

It is also virtually impossible to reduce a bluebell carpet to only
a few plants without removing most of the topsoil - what you CAN do
is to remove the ones of flowering size, but they also spread
vegetatively.

But they don't migrate. Dig up the parent bulb and you get the bulbules
with it.

Only if you remove a large lump of topsoil, too. If you have ever
tried to get rid of bluebells, you will know how hard it is to do.
