I was first attracted to my lot in Orchidland because of all the strawberry guava. This was befoe I learned how invasive and nasty they are. Now I plan on clearing it off my land a section at at time and replacing with native and other noninvasive ornamentals. I have a good amount of Ohia's interspersed throughout the guava so I really don't want to bulldoze the site. I will try Leilanyguy's idea of cutting and working them out of the soil but I can only imagine the hard slow work that will be. I'm curious to learn any other ways to get this plant out of the ground. Does anyone else have any experience with removing guava?
