Q: Will painting a stump stop it from growing?

• <div><p>Yes, if you &ldquo;paint&rdquo; or brush a freshly cut stump with a specialty herbicide containing glyphosate within five minutes of cutting the fresh surface, the stump will soak up the herbicide and prevent new growth. One application often works, but you might have to re-paint two to four weeks later if you see growth.</p></div>

Q: Is hiring an arborist worth it, or can I hire a standard tree company?

• <div><p>Hiring an arborist is usually more expensive than hiring a standard tree company, but it&rsquo;s typically well worth the investment. If you suspect a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/3-common-tree-diseases.htm">tree is infested or diseased</a>, hiring an arborist can help avoid the same fate for nearby trees, and prevent removal. Arborists might also be necessary if you&rsquo;re dealing with tree removal or trimming near power lines, as uncertified removal companies often aren&rsquo;t permitted to service these trees. Finally, if your aim is to preserve the health of your trees, an arborist is absolutely worth the money.</p></div>

Q: What time of year should a tree be cut down?

• <div><p>The dormant season between winter and late spring, when all the leaves have fallen off, is the best time of year to cut down a tree. Frozen earth is actually preferable for tree removal because it won&rsquo;t disturb the surrounding landscape as much as it would if you removed the tree during warmer months. </p></div>

Q: What do I do with a tree stump once it’s dead?

• <div><p>Some people prefer to leave or even carve a leftover stump, but we recommend removing it if possible. You can often dig out smaller trunks with a shovel once they have died and dried out. You can have stumps professionally removed, or request a service to grind them down to ground level so they can be replaced with other landscaping or objects.</p></div>
