The message
from eddyjack contains these words:


part of my garden is being overtaken by buttercups tried digging them
out but they just reappear anything i can use to get rid of them
permanently thnx in advance for any help

The way you wrote that post suggests you don't pay much attention to
detail and are a bit sloppy.

What, getting lessons from Cereus VainGlorious perhaps?

Now go back and dig out those buttercups
again, this time take out every single little teensy bit, above and
below ground. If you miss a few bits, they'll be up again in a week so
go back, check, and get them out.

Fingers work better at yankng out fresh tender shoots.

Keep at it and the roots ought to eventually starve and die.
