Raspberries are escaping their raised bed after two years :( I really don't want them to spread beyond it. what to do? Bury a tarp under the mulch? Dig a trench around the bed? Roundup?

We're fairly critter free with the deer/rabbit fence, but birds were stealing some berries last year. I hadn't considered them dropping seeds, but that's obviously going to happen. Bird netting around this one bed will be somewhat annoying to set up, but might be worthwhile.
