Remove anything from around the stump that you do not want damaged. Inform us if there is anything potentially dangerous near the stump (rock, pebbles, brick, rebar, tools, etc.) as the machine can turn them into high speed projectiles.

If you have an invasive tree/stump (fruit-bearing trees, honey locusts, ailanthus, sweet gums, mulberries, hybrid poplars, bamboo and other invasive species)and want to prevent regrowth or new saplings. The best course of action is to immediately treat the fresh cut stump with herbicide treatment prior to stump grinding. The best time to do this is within an HOUR of the main trunk removal as the tree is still actively circulating nutrients to the roots. The treatment will spread through the root system for one to two days killing off the remainder of the tree’s root system
