Completely removes, eliminates, or destroys something; roots out completely.
From Latin 'eradicatus,' past participle of 'eradicare' (to root out). Used in English since the 16th century for thorough elimination.
When you 'eradicate' something, you're not just killing it—you're literally pulling it out by the roots, which is why the word works perfectly for diseases, prejudices, and invasive species that need total elimination!
