you cannot kill bamboo with roundup or any other pesticide. I lived with the bamboo from my neighbors yard for 19 years ( running bamboo) and it did indeed destroy my driveway and came up all over my yard ( and under my pool). It is now illegal to plant running bamboo in that county and should be illegal here, too. Anyone who poo-poos this invasive plant such as Dotneko, has no idea the damage these plants can do. The only way to stop this is to dig a concrete divider ( about 18 inches) down into the soil. Cutting it down does NOTHING, it just grows back. Your neighbor who planted the bamboo is going to have the same problem himself. Good luck to you.....
