Best way to kill off a tree stump?
So when I moved into this house 15 plus years ago the former owner had planted a couple of trees between the sidewalk and the street. Fast forward to last year and the roots had pretty much destroyed my sidewalk so I had them cut down last summer.
Now I have two big stumps that are still alive and I'm getting ready to drop $2500 to have the sidewalk replaced. I drilled a bunch of 1 inch holes in the stumps at the end of the summer and dumped something in the holes, but the beasts are still alive. I would burn the damn things, but the fire department would frown on such an activity. If I was in the country, I would blow them up with dynamite or just make a few pipe bombs to take them out, but obviously the neighbors would become restless when their windows blew out. ![]() I checked into having someone come over with a stump grinder and they are WAY to pound of their services. So is their a good chemical out there to take these wooden bastards to the promised land that anyone has had success with? I hear good things about this but I honestly have no idea if this is going to take them out. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |

I would recommend having several of the beasts from the KC Cheerleader tryouts stare at the stump. I would most likely uproot itself to get away from that horror.

I used a skid loader with a big brush attachment yesterday to push back brush around my happy field and to open an area of a couple of acres in my timber to get deer to the killing tree, along with some trails. I'll eventually burn it off to kill the thorns and crap.
I plan to walk through and spray the big stumps with tordon to make sure brushy crap doesn't sprout. I have it on good authority that 6 pounds will not do the job, but 20lbs will bring down. A 6' diameter cottonwood with a chainsaw hole cut in the base. Not r commended in town, because rumor has it it winds people up for a couple of mile radius. |
