There are several ways to get rid of tree stumps in your backyard. However, our best recommendation is that you hire a professional tree service to grind it out, because they have the proper equipment to do it easily and efficiently. If you are wondering what the cost is, give us a call at G’ Friendly Tree Service and we will give you a fair assessment and free estimate to rid yourself of any hassles or hazards. However, if you really want to try to do it yourself, you may try using a mixture of molasses or sugar and any fertilizer that contains nitrogen. Make a few holes in the stump with a drill then fill the holes with the above mixture. Then, wet the stump thoroughly and cover it all with a layer of woodchips (mulch). Some recommend that you add herbicides into the holes, but remember, these would kill the vegetation adjacent to the stump. |
