You are using Round Up and still talking about staying away from invasives?
Hit it with Ag grade vinegar or (ehem) make sure that some mammal (yes, any mammal) in your household comes by and pees on it. Both of these will kill pretty much anything and leach away harmlessly afterwards. Round Up and other Glyphosate or Perchlorate-based herbicides will damage the soil matrix for over a decade and more.. If that doesn't work find a guy with a goat. Goats will eliminate PI/PO, even Kudzu, if you can find and remove the root or keep the goats over the spot until the root starves.
