Oro Valley Tree Stump Removal

Looks

The site of a tree stump isn’t very appealing. If you’re concerned about the look of your yard, removing the stump is well worth it. Removing unsightly stumps will improve the look of your property and free up space for other plants.

Safety

Tree stumps are hazardous. They are easy to trip over. They are an obstacle you have to maneuver around. Whether cleaning up your yard, playing with pets, or spending time with children, tree stumps simply get in the way–and they may cause accidents. It is always best to remove tree stumps.

Issues with Rot

Stumps can attract insects. The decaying tree takes a long time to rot away completely. While it’s still decaying, it can attract termites, ants, beetles, and other wood-boring insects. If left unchecked, they can eventually spread to your home. A tree stump can also grow fungi that can be dangerous to children and animals. It is better to remove the stump before it decays.

Root Removal Difficulties

While you may be tempted to tackle the tree stump yourself, there are some issues complicating the task. For example, tree stumps leave behind their whole root system in the ground. So removing only part of the tree stump will not guarantee further root growth. When the stump begins to rot, unprofessional attempts at removal can become hazardous. Dealing with fungus and insects is not a pleasant task. Lastly, stumps are very difficult to remove. Specialized equipment is required to accomplish the task efficiently and effectively.
