no idea what 'natural bamboo' is - just what they called it, as they
probably don't know its proper name! I'm suspecting it's the common bushy
spready stuff. Is there anything they can put on the roots to speed up the
process?

hi all,

My in laws live in Spain, and the house their garden backs on
to had natural bamboo. The owner cut it down, and since then
it has gone mad! It's coming under the walls, and sprouting up
all over their garden. Apparently the roots are very thick and
grow straight down - it's driving them mad.

How can they get rid of it?

What is "natural" bamboo?
If everyone cuts off the culms as they emerge from the ground the bamboo
will eventually die.
