Garlon 4 Ultra Herbicide does not list that is controls river cane or any kind of bamboo. You may try reaching out to the manufacturer to confirm if it could be used for it. Dow can be reached at 800-992-5994
Bamboo is extremely stubborn, so it can take several steps to remove it completely. You can use Round Up QuickPro at the highest listed usage rate to help eliminate bamboo. You will be required to cut the bamboo down to a short stump and then apply the Round Up QuickPro. It can take several applications to achieve the desired results. For additional information on treating bamboo, we recommend consulting with your local cooperative extension office Master Gardener.
