Bought a house and previous owner has various bamboo groves which are well established, look great …. But they chose running bamboo and didn’t install proper barriers and it’s running amuck. Is there any way of getting bamboo which is sprouting up in my lawn without destroying the lawn?
I’m trying to convince myself I don’t have to excavate everything and rip out rhizomes by hand

I think it’s a full excavation job I’m afraid
Sorry, think you need to ‘unconvince’ yourself. I also have a running battle, fingers crossed so far for me its just in a large flower bed and not the lawn. It spreads across the whole bed and grows from any tiny bit you miss. Ive been going at it all year, dug out some more yesterday that I found inbetween another plant. Hate the stuff. Good luck.
