After tree removal, the tree’s anchor-the stump-is left behind. While some tree removal services leave the stump behind, there are good reasons to have the stump removed.

For one, a lingering stump can be an eyesore. It can also be a trip hazard and can make it difficult to perform mowing or other lawn care maintenance tasks. You also have to remember that beneath the stump is the former tree’s root system. This can inhibit you from planting new trees in the vicinity of that area.

Of course, these are all annoyances, but the truth is, a lingering stump is more than just a nuisance. An old tree stump will eventually begin to decay, and that rotting wood may become a gathering site for pests such as termites or carpenter ants. The last thing that you want is to invite unwanted pests on to your property because your professional tree care expert failed to address stump removal.
