有多种方法管理可用来消除猫爪藤(Macfadyena unguis-cati)，包括人工，化学和生物方法。
人工方法 ：人工控制猫爪藤(M. unguis-cati)是砍筏茎部和挖除根部。这种方法是不切实际的，除非族群非常小，因为此物种的生长模式(麦克蒙特, 1999)。化学方法：有的地区使用草甘膦除草剂，已被证明是成功的(N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine)。在这些地区，从树木上1.5公尺高的地方将此藤蔓砍除，再砍除地面的藤蔓。砍下来的藤蔓施以 1:1.5的草甘膦水溶液(阿喀琉斯, 2003)，或直接用草甘膦(麦克蒙特, 1999)。处理后的地区一旦开始活跃生长(通常3至6周后)，在叶面喷洒草甘膦混合表面活性剂，必须小心使用，避免伤害非目标植物。可能需要在初步处理后5年或以上，实施额外的叶面喷施，(跟腱, 2003)。这种方法不应该被用在生态敏感地区，因为可能会有除草剂漂移(麦克蒙特, 1999)。 生物方法：食叶虫Charidotis auroguttata(Boheman)，叶吸虫Carvalhotingis visenda(Boheman)和叶蛾Hypocosmia pyrochroma(Jones)都对猫爪藤(M. unguis-cati)有专一性。1999年C. auroguttata被释放在南非，用来控制猫爪藤(M. unguis-cati)，2007年C. visenda被批准释放到澳大利亚。每个生物控制剂都对猫爪藤(M. unguis-cati)有效，会优先吃猫爪藤，不会吃其它测试物种(Dhileepan, 2006； Dhileepan，Trevino, and Snow, 2007； Willimas, 2002)。在这些生物控制剂是否适合于其它环境，尚须仔细考虑每个地方的植物种类等因素。
文化教育：控制猫爪藤(M. unguis-cati)传播的方法包括，只在经过批准的区域种植此物种，并且每年开花后加以修剪，以防止其蔓延(弗朗西斯)。

FLEPPC (which compiles (revised) invasive species lists every two years) classifies Macfadyena unguis-cati as a Category I invasive. Invasive exotic plants are termed Category I invasives when they are altering native plant communities by displacing native species, changing community structures or ecological functions, or hybridizing with natives. This definition does not rely on the economic severity or geographic range of the problem, but on the documented ecological damage caused. (FLEPPC undated) New South Wales
Macfadyena unguis-cati is considered a "serious environmental weed" and is a declared category W4C weedunder the Noxious Weeds Act 1993 (Dhileepan, 2006). Queensland
Macfadyena unguis-cati is considered a "serious environmental weed" and is a declared class 3 weed under the Land Protection (Pest and Stock Route Management Act 2002 (Dhileepan, 2006). South Africa
Charidotis auroguttata (Coleoptera) was introduced as a biological control agent in 1996 after mechanical and chemical control methods were proven to be unsuccessful. No herbicides are registered for use on the species in this country (Williams, 2002).
