tAKES VERY STRONG SYSYTEMIC POISENS TO KILL .. COMMERCIAL GROWERS RECCOMEND THAT THE WHOLE STOOL BE DUG UP AND BITS BE CUT OFF AND TRIMMED TO ENSURE NO BORER AND THEN PLANTED IN NEW SPOT .

sorry for shouting , will ask around what they use .. Blue Java and Bluggoe are very prone .. as are most plantain types
