If it were me, I'd just slowly expand into the space, bit by bit,
perhaps from different starting points, cleaning/salvaging as I went.
I'd take it in small manageable chunks, so that I didn't often come
back to this thought:

...triggered by contemplating the whole area at once; and eventually it
would be all converted...this is part of how I approach assorted
invasives on my Hawai'i land. If I try and "solve" all the "trouble
spots" at once I overwhelm myself, but if I just deal with a bit at a
time and don't burn myself out on it I find I get quite a lot done
without the mental stress of overwhelm.
best wishes,
