5 reasons why tree stumps should be removed

Posted: 21 Aug '17

Here are 5 good reasons why tree stumps should be removed by a professional tree stump grinder:

A stump grinder is a machine with strong steel teeth that mulch the tree stump to around 5cms (2 inches) below ground level in as little as 15 minutes depending on the size of the stump taking the back breaking labour out of manually removing a tree stump.

1. Hazardous

Old tree stumps can be an obstacle and a trip hazard if left in your yard or garden and can damage lawn mowers and other gardening equipment.

2. Unsightly

Trees that have been cut leaving a stump are an eyesore, particularly if the stump is in a state of decay.

3. Encourages pests

Decaying tree stumps are a haven for unwanted pests such as cockroaches, beetles, termites, wood boring insects and ants.

4. Keeps growing

Sometimes new growths of the very tree you cut down will continue to sprout from a tree stump until it is removed properly.

5. Takes up valuable space

Tree stumps, if left in a garden bed or in the middle of a yard, can take up precious space, particularly if the garden or lawn area is small.
