An old timer told me once about what seems to work.
Pull all the mature fronds before they produce mature spores. The sori containing immature spores will be greenish. Mature ones will be a brownish color.
When the rhizomes send up new shoots, break them off but leave a little of the epidermis attached. Do not break them completely off. The rhizomes will continue to send nutrients up but the fern will not grow. It will cause the rhizomes to "bleed" to death.

Possum thread? Ok....one of my ex-wives chased a possum out of the yard into the street and killed it with a broom. True story. After that, whenever we argued, I made sure there wasn't a broom in sight. Snake

The broom is a gateway weapon. The hatchet is next. Good thing you got out of there.

Found this in the Book of Possum (2-pack special w/Braken Wars at Costco)....
If the possum will eat braken, he should be spared the hatchet.
