we as people aren't responsible for wildlife spreading seeds, but if a person plants a plant and it damages another persons property and they have been notified of an impending issue then the homeowner with the bamboo plants is libel for any damage to the neighbors property. As humans we are responsible for our actions and in this case the planing of bamboo wasn't properly contained to their property and were notified of such. They are responsible. There are way too many people that brush off their bad actions and attitude...throw the book at them!!!!!

As to laughing....not bloody likely if you know the law.
