Product Information

There are times when cutting down a tree is the only option, whether we like it or not. This is especially the case if the tree is diseased or posing a safety risk. Copper tree stump nails offer a slightly different approach. These are hammered into the base of the tree stump and left there. The nails damage the growth cells and the copper eventually kills the stump. There are mixed opinions about how well this method actually works, and if the copper has any part to play in the tree’s demise.

After you’ve treated the tree stump accordingly, you will need to remove the bulk of it. Here we’ve included a video to show you exactly how it’s done. Seal the holes by dripping on candle wax – this stops the salt from getting blown around the garden and harming other plants. Weedkiller is best applied to fresh stumps, as live tissue is needed for its uptake. If the stump is only a few weeks old, you may be able to expose live tissue by cutting the top off to expose a fresh-cut surfaceObviously, this is something you want to avoid, so it is best to use a product that works deep down to destroy the roots and prevent regrowth. his huge range of uses makes it a super versatile product and a solid investment, as you can eradicate all of the nasty vegetation in your garden, with just one product.

Best results are achieved when time is spent applying this product liberally and deliberately to plants, and it may not work just to just generally spray the solution near them. Cutting the plants down to stumps first is the best way to get the most from this tree stump killer. Finally, cover the whole top of the stump with a plastic sheet to keep off the rain and secure in place

One of the things you can do is to dig the stump up. Another option is to get a stump grinding professional out to grind it down. Measure the diameter of the tree at 1.3 metres from the ground (dbh) to determine how many plugs are required. The number of plugs to use per cm of dbh is specified on the product label for stumps and the same is recommended for standing trees. The number required will vary depending on the species being treated. When a tree stump stands out like a sore thumb in your landscape then you need a fast-acting and powerful stump remover. Spectracide HG-66420 Stump Remover hits the mark with its powerful chemical ingredients and easy application. Triclopyr is the active chemical ingredient in Ferti-lome’s Brush and Stump Killer that’s designed to kill tree roots and stop invasive shoots from growing. It’s also helpful in speeding the decomposition of the stump. Triclopyr, Ferti-lome’s active ingredient, can be toxic to birds, so it should be used sparingly. Limit its use to small stumps up to about 6 inches in diameter and woody brush and vining stumps, such as those associated with poison ivy or wisteria.

Whether you’re using a chemical tree stump killer or a non-chemical product, safety should always be your main concern. Not just the safety of the plants and trees around the tree stump in question, but the safety and health of the people and pets in the household. Some chemical-based products are hazardous and have to be treated with caution. This is the case for products such as Roebic K-77 Root Killer which are in fact herbicides with high toxicity. What one needs out of a tree stump killer is simplicity, effectiveness, and ease of preparation and use. And in that, the Dow AgroSciences RTU548 Tordon RTU delivers in spades. It doesn’t freeze which means it will stay effective for a long period of time preventing new sprouts and penetrating deeper where the tree roots are.

A: Unfortunately, no. The compounds used to make tree stump killers are toxic to animals, and even humans. It is advised to keep pets away from treated areas until they are fully dry. What is the fastest way to get rid of a tree stump? Different types of tree stump killer products are used in different ways, some more convenient and simple than others. One question that many people are keen to know the answer to is how to stop a tree stump from growing. When you cut down a tree, the stump and roots can grow, and this could leave you facing the same problem again a few years down the line.

To use it on a tree stump, you’ll have to do some serious digging around the base of the stump to reach the roots. Once you have exposed the roots, you just pour the liquid into the hole and wait. The active ingredient in this product is copper sulfate pentahydrate which is lethal to the roots. Not only does it kill the roots, but it also prevents any root growth as long as the material is in the soil. While it is expected for you to look forward to impressive results when using a tree stump killer, you must also note that getting satisfaction takes time and patience. Tree stumps are hardy things, and they take a while to respond to treatment. This means the concentrate has to take time to penetrate and damage the cells and tissues fully.Make additional cuts in the same way as steps 2 and 3 for each whole 10cm diameter of the tree. For example a tree with a diameter of 35cm will have 3 cuts to accept the chemical and 3 below to catch any runoff. When I tested Doff, I found that this 1-litre product will, when diluted, treat up to 400 sq metres, so it is perfect for almost all domestic gardens. It’s also crucial to remember that stump killers use herbicides to work their magic. As such, they have the potential to impact the environment negatively. Many tree-stump killers use chemicals such as triclopyr, picloram, and glyphosate that can be harmful to wildlife and can even cause damage to surrounding trees and landscaping. Doff Tree Stump & Tough Weed Killer contains glyphosate; it can be used on weeds as well as woody growth, making it suitable for nettles, dandelion and willowherb.
