Spanish bluebell - what to do?

Hi, so I kept seeing these clickbait headlines where Monty Don is warning against the spread of Spanish bluebells. I checked what a Spanish Bluebell is and it seems that there is one healthily growing in the middle of the flower bed this year. Does anyone have these in their garden and if so how dangerous can they be to leave in situ? It actually looks quite nice but of course it won’t be so good if it spreads all over the garden. I think I also read it could be toxic for pets.

My gardens are inundated with bluebells at the moment, thank you for your picture as i wasn’t sure what Spanish ones looked like.
Mine are not and though they look so pretty now they are very invasive and those leaves last much longer than the flowers.
