    Are you crazy? Bamboo is a scourge. You can't ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, get rid of it once it's in the ground.

    A broad spectrum weed ****er, like Roundup, will do the trick. Bamboo is such a lovely plant, and only the types with underground runners are a problem... and besides to harvest bamboo in FS you would only need to tap a square, so I dont think it would be an issue.
