Chemical Stump Removal
If manual labor isn’t for you, you could always try the chemical route. To remove a stump chemically, you’ll need a drill, a chainsaw, potassium nitrate, an ax and fuel oil or kerosene.
- Here’s a summary on how to remove a stump with chemicals:
- Cut off as much of the stump as possible with a chainsaw.
- Drill 1-inch holes around the perimeter of the stump. Move inward by about 3 or 4 inches and drill some more holes. Ideally, these holes should be between 8-12 inches deep depending on the size of the stump.
- Drill additional holes around the sides so they meet with the other holes to create 45-degree angles.
Pour liberal amounts of potassium nitrate into the holes. - Fill the holes with water.
- Wait four to six weeks or until the stump becomes very spongy.
- Use an ax to break up the spongy stump.
- Optional: Saturate the stump with fuel oil or kerosene and allow it to sit for another week or so.
- Optional: Ignite the stump and let it burn and smolder until it is completely gone.
