Some varietals of running-type bamboo are a headache to contain and can become invasive eg: Allgold, Yellow Grove. The clumping varietals are actually pretty easy to contain eg: Green Panda, Campbell.
The running stuff can be killed off by cutting low then covering the zone with an opaque plastic tarp during the warmer months. The bamboo rhizome/root system is generally pretty shallow, not impossible to remove once the stand is completely dead.
