for animals that are easy to find and capture, yes, lethal control is quite simple. However, with sea lampreys in the great lakes it is simply too costly to spray enough chemicals to eliminate them, or to capture them to be killed in another way. Until an effective method is found for capturing a significant number or burms, it is hard to argue that any method is the best.
