We just had to dig it all up ourselves then throw a load of weed killer down from every place we dug & it’s done the trick but it’s hard work

Answer 8

Paint scraper to scrap of fence , secateurs to cut it off the fence or tree trunk, trowl, spade, gloves and elbow grease and you will never see the last of it.  

Answer 9

Cut out a 6inch section of the main stem or all if a few. Let it die off (brown all over) this will make it possible to pull away from what it's attached to. Then dig out the root. Good luck
