Burn The Stump Away

Let’s say you’ve chopped down a tree on your property and cleaned up all of the pieces except for that unsightly stump. Instead of trying methods that will either break your wallet or potentially break your back, you could also try removing the stump by burning it.

1. Drill a hole into the center of the stump about eight to 10 inches deep.
2. Clean all of the debris out of the hole.
3. Continue drilling holes, leaving about one inch between each hole.
4. Scoop potassium nitrate into each hole.
5. Pour hot water into each hole.
6. Continue pouring water into the holes until the potassium nitrate has dissolved.
7. Place the scrap wood on top of the stump.
8. Light the scrap wood and wait for the stump to ignite.
9. Use your shovel to break up any large roots or stump pieces that are left over.
10. Bring in soil to fill the hole as needed.

Rotting a Tree Stump

Very much the same as burning a tree stump, you can also remove a stump by rotting it and then filling in the hole after the process is complete.

How to Rot a Stump

1. Drill holes in the stump eight to ten inches deep.
2. Fill the holes with your high-nitrogen substance.
3. Pour water into each hole.
4. Chip off pieces of the stump as it gradually softens.
5. Fill the hole with dirt as needed.

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.

1. Here’s a summary on how to remove a stump with chemicals:
2. Cut off as much of the stump as possible with a chainsaw.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Fill the holes with water.
6. Wait four to six weeks or until the stump becomes very spongy.
7. Use an ax to break up the spongy stump.
8. Optional: Saturate the stump with fuel oil or kerosene and allow it to sit for another week or so.
9. Optional: Ignite the stump and let it burn and smolder until it is completely gone.
