Many think that after you cut down and remove a tree, the work is complete. However, that is not true as there is still a stump that needs to be removed. Removing the stump should be a high priority for home or property owners.
Here are a few more reasons why you should get rid of the tree stump:
· Tree roots can continue to grow and eventually the roots can damage foundation, water pipes, or even lift the pavement among other things.
· They are an eyesore.
· They are a desirable environment for pests, rodents, and other animals.
· It will decay, grow mold, or grow fungi, which can spread on your property.
· An old tree stump is not just an eyesore but also takes up valuable space. By removing it, you will have a clear and wide yard to landscape or expand to your home.
· Preventing accidents as a lone tree stump in your yard will typically be covered by weeds, grass, and other plants causing you to inadvertently causing a hazard (e.g. you could stub your toe or trip over it); and
· If you live in a bushfire prone area, it also poses a huge fire hazard.
