I Want Fancy Words TOO !
Bamboo is near impossible to get rid of once it gets established. Burning it down and spraying the new growth has worked best for me.
Once you cut bamboo the stubs become hard as rocks and will puncture tires of any ground equipment..Ground sterilizer will put a hurt on it if you have a couple years to kill it all.(paritrol) The roots can go 3' deep. Only sure way is to dig it upI'm sorry if I'm encroaching on this thread but I've got a similar problem and wanted to ask a similar question. My dad planted a bunch of bamboo around his property over the years and since his death it's taking over in some areas. No way a normal bush hog will work as some of the areas are not drivable unless you have the cutter on the front. Will any of these options work with bamboo as well? That lane shark mower looks promising but I don't have front hydrolics on my 870 JD tractor - not sure it would be big enough either.
Google Lane Shark Mowers. Interesting concept. Have not seen one in action. You will need a front end loader attachment for it.
