Chemical for stump removal

There are many ways to remove a stump. Most gardeners choose to use the traditional one: dig around the stump and roots, cut the roots and pull them out, then put out the entire stump. This technique isn’t too cheap since, even though it sounds easy, it requires a lot of work.

Because of this, fewer and fewer professionals give it as the first option to their customers because most of them can’t afford it. Instead, they try to give their clients a cheaper solution.

Using chemicals for stump removal is quite popular right now because it’s cheaper than digging and pulling out the stump. Actually, most people ask the companies directly how much is it before they can even suggest anything else. How does it work? Well, the degradation process of a stump takes years. Literally, it can take two, five, or even ten years; this is the main reason why people always remove them manually. To be honest, waiting 10 years until the stump finally disappears is quite a lot. Therefore, professionals decided to use chemicals that speed up the decay of a stump.

They only have to apply the correct dose of the chemical depending on the size and condition of the stump. There exist several chemicals for stump removal. Therefore, the professional must determine which one is the best for your stump. As you can see, it is cheaper because they won’t have to work super hard to remove the stump, it’s more about apply and wait.

The disadvantage of this technique is that it takes longer to remove the stump, and if it is a live stump, don’t expect it to decay in just a few days. If you want to speed up the process, you can remove the dead portions every occasionally and reapply the chemical. You can use chemicals to remove stumps by yourself, but make sure to apply the right one.
