Sigh. It's not easy. It is terrible stuff. We have it too. It's part of
the reason (not the whole reason, but a good part of it) why I'm gardening
mostly in Self-Watering Containers now.
I suppose Roundup would work if I could bring myself to use it. Our place
is only about 50 feet from a creek and we're uphill from the creek. I
don't know what Roundup would do to the life in the creek. I don't think
it would help it, however.
