Vegetative plants can only be killed by cutting the root. The life stage of the plants targeted for mechanical control is critical. Removal of umbels is effective if carried out at the peak of flowering or at the beginning of fruit formation. Subsequent cutting of regenerated flowering umbels, as they emerge, prevents plants from producing fruits. Umbels must be removed from the site. Even umbels cut at late flowering or early fruiting are able to produce viable seeds and thus should be collected and destroyed (burnt). Because of the extraordinery fecundity of H. mantegazzianum, even a severe reduction in the number of fruits produced by regenerating plants, relative to the control, still results in large quantities of fruit in absolute numbers.
