"Mike did a very good job. Took down a large sycamore tree. Him and Ashley cleaned everything up. Even raking the ground to get small pieces up. Very professional. My son is going to get them to cut down a tree in his yard."

"Little Stump's Tree Service and Stump Removal = Excellent and Professional service. Not only was all work performed as requested but exceeded my expectations. I initially contacted Little Stump's Tree Service to obtain a quote for the removal of five very large stumps, four of which were better than three feet in diameter and at least thirty inches in height. However, after talking to Frank, in person, I felt comfortable with him and that he is an honest person to deal with. Therefore, in addition to the original five stumps we added another thirteen stumps to the deal making it a total of eighteen stumps to be removed. All work was performed efficiently and professionally resulting in the area surrounding each stump being immediately cleaned after removal and no unsightly mess being left behind. Frank and his partner Lonnie worked together like clockwork, one knowing and anticipating the otherâ s next move. I highly recommend Little Stump's Tree Service and Stump Removal for your next Tree Service and/or Stump Removal Project. In fact, I've already contacted two of my friends in need of their services and passed along my recommendations."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It is possible to burn out a tree stump if it is dried out and in an area of your property with a large buffer. Drill holes in the stump and dig around the base so it burns more easily. Then, build a small campfire on top using kindling and firewood. You’ll need enough to keep the fire going for many hours to completely burn out the stump, especially if it’s large. 

Monitor the fire closely to ensure it doesn’t spread, and have a hose on hand if it starts to get out of control. When the fire is out, break apart the burned stump and dig out what’s left of it.  

If this sounds like a good option, learn more about how to burn a tree stump before attempting it, as it does come with risks.

DIY home gardening can be relaxing, joyful, and cost-effective. From mowing your lawn to planting your own flower beds, there is a wide variety of gardening tasks that you can do yourself to make your yard look beautiful. If you’d rather spend your time not in the dirt, or if you’d like someone to take care of your plants for you, calling a professional gardening service is best. They can give you a workup of what services you’ll need and how often to schedule them.

You can use herbicides to prevent roots from growing without killing the tree itself, however they must be used with caution. Systemic herbicides are absorbed by the root and can kill off problematic roots. However, herbicides can sometimes negatively impact nearby plants, so the solution is best used sparingly.

The average lifespan of an oak tree is 100 to 300 years, so long as it isn’t impacted by diseases like sudden oak death. Some species will last shorter or longer, depending on where you live.

You can use a chainsaw, but it won’t remove the entire stump or root ball and is not a recommended method. It takes quite a bit of physical work to achieve and will likely dull or ruin your chainsaw. Instead, consider using salt, herbicide, light deprivation, boiling water, stump grinding, or burning to kill a tree stump. These methods allow you to kill a stump using minimal machinery and physical exertion.
