Comments: Occasional clumps occur in forested areas. Bamboo species should be introduced cautiously and monitored closely.
Control:
Physical: Digging plants out may require heavy equipment. Continuing removal will probably be necessary due to resprouting. Continued cutting or mowing will eventually kill most plants by exhausting food reserves.
"Livestock will graze shoots but cannot bring down large plants" (Motooka et al., 2003).
Chemical: Remove tops and spray regrowth with Glyphosate® or Amitrole® 2%. Velpar® can be used but is persistent in the soil. However, it has been reported that glyphosate does not adequately translocate to the rhizomes (Dick Veitch, communication to Aliens list server).
Control is difficult. "Best to cut down and spray the regrowth. In forests and other non-cropland, imazapyr or glyphosate plus fluazifop are effective (J. DeFrank, Univ. Hawai‘i)" (Motooka et al., 2003).
