Default Chinese Elms - Can't get rid of it!

No there isn't! The trailer park I live in has them all over the place and every
spring I have to clear out their seeds from my garden and pull up the odd ones
that do start growing. The manage has a small plot out by the driveaway that he
let one start up in there 3 years ago and alread the roots are so deep and
spread out that it's take a hit with a 10 megaton NUKE to get rid of it.

In This Universe The Night was Falling,The Shadows were lenghtening
towards an east that would not know another dawn.
But elsewhere the Stars were still young and the light of morning lingered: and
along the path he once had followed, Man would one day go again.

Arthur C. Clarke "The City & The Stars"

I have a Chinese Elm tree starting to grow in my yard. It's about 5' tall
I've been trying to get rid of it. It's very close to a chain link fence do
digging it up is a challenge. Is there an easy way to get rid of it?
