Oh dug a spade depth right round the base of ours, put a snig chain round as close to the base as possible and pulled them out with his truck. We had nice volcanic soil there though.

Did you know, that what you thought I said, was not what I meant :S

Let some cattle at it! They love it.
We spend all our time getting it to grow, not eliminating it but we did once move some very large clumps quite successfully with a front end loader on the tractor. I don't think they took much digging out and there was, like Stikki did, some pulling involved. The plants all took root successfully in holes dug elsewhere and continue to flourish.
