How to kill bluebells

Hi all, granny garden got all overrun. I have put a lot of time and cash into cutting trees black, taking lots of Bluebell bulbs out last yr. Planted plants, New bulbs and now bloody overrun with huge clumps of bluebells again. Currently in flower smothering new stuff. How can I get rid once and for all?, currently have counted at least 30 clumps that need to be out as a minimum. Please help ???

    I'd consider yourself lucky.  Maybe if you dont want them dig them up and offer to give them to people who do.  They are getting rarer and rarer due to cross pollintation with Spanish ones.

    Please don't throw them out, pass them onto someone who does want them. My favourite time of year when they are out.
