I hate to kill any plant but this one is taking over my back yard. The roots are so deep, it's almost impossible to get to the roots of it. Any ideas??

Cut down as far as you can, make a hole as much to the center of the root as possible, then pack thatmholemwith rocksalt.

Yep, salt. Chop up the exposed root top, stick a piece of metal rebar in it as deep as you can, or.... what ever to make as deep of a hole as possible.. Fill hole or holes with table salt lightly water. Everyday, eventually it will kill it.

*Edit: If you don't mind killing all vegetation near the plants you could just use white vinegar on the plants.
(makes the soil acidic temporarily and kills the plants)

If you can get at the root... it's good eating.

I hate using chemicals, but Ground Clear will kill anything in sight.
