Default Killing off Wild Garlic

I have wild garlic all over my yard. In the grass, tangled in with my
tulips and daffs, around the roses, in the side walk. Literally
everywhere it can grow. Pulling it up is not working, and from what
I'm reading, it usually doesn't. Roundup is supposed to work, but I
prefer a more environmentally friendly option.

Around the roses I put down a weed barrier and some mulch over that.
It went through the water holes in the barrier and is just as strong.
At least the other weeds are gone. I can't do that in the yard, even
if it worked for the roses.

As for eating it, I prefer to eat the ones that I grow just for that
purpose, I want to have a pretty yard as well.

Anyone have any good ideas?

Thanks,

Jason
