If you read through the posts I've made, you'll see me trying to understand why the continued growth and spread of albizia in areas where they're heavily established is a bad thing, especially when the countermeasure involves the use of herbicide. Is it that hard to uproot young albizia when they're only a few feet tall and growing on your land or along the side of a road?

Couple problems with your statement.
A very small amount of herbicide is injected into the tree. No one should be heavily spraying herbicide to kill albizia.
Uprooting them doesn't always kill them. They grow sideways when you do that which makes the new trees even more dangerous! Look at all of the chain-sawed trees outside of Lava Tree park and note how many of those trees are now alive, growing new shoots out of the horizontal trunks!
