Exclamation Neighbor's Banana tree crowding my space

A little over a year ago before the neighbors moved in someone from maintenance had the
UGLY banana tree cut down to the ground.

Today the tree is bigger than before and obscuring part of my computer
room window. (See the first picture on the link.)

There's no way to get rid of banana trees except to move to a new place.
They are pests.

This picture is close except the fruit is not in season at the moment and the actual tree in my window is much THICKER. Maybe I will try to take a picture and load it here but I suck at both of those.

Probably not. All trees and such are dealt with by the "Association." (Lost the vocabulary for what the thing is called.)



Even if you dig up these banana trees by the roots, they grow back.

=-=-=-

The association did helpfully cut back one of the trees that lives right next
to where hubby parks his car. Various parts of the tree come down whenever
we get a storm and the tree was growing taller becoming a threat to the roof.

Now that tree has been cut and trimmed enough to be of no harm -- at least until it grows back in a few years.

I would not be a happy camper either...
I’m sorry you have to deal with yet another thing...

Maybe all they can do is trim it/ cut it regularly?

Honestly Bobby I'd be afraid for poison to be used. Because it could
maybe hurt someone else or an animal.

They could cut it down then apply brush be gone on the stalk. It is good for killing big greenery items. Might work for this thing...not sure though.
