Can anyone suggest how I can stop bineweed creeping under the fence

hours each year digging it up. is there a better solution?

Dilligent and relentless cutting it off at the base at least once a
week. If the plant doesn't produce foliage it will eventually run out
of life. This procedure must be done at least once a week, if not
every four days. If it goes to flower and sets seeds, which it does
at a remarkable rate, you're toast. Also, it's called bindweed, not
bineweed, if it's the plant I'm thinking of.

This is an example of the world catering to bad spellers. I found references
to both names, sharing the same Latin designation - the convulvulus whatever
it is relative of morning glory. I guess scientists have surrendered to mass
culture. :-(
