In addition to posing a safety issue for humans, tree stumps are also known for sapping nutrients from the plants growing around them, prohibiting growth. They can also harbour some nasty fungus, especially if the stump is remnants from a diseased tree. This can be devastating for neighbouring plants, and even dangerous for pets or young kids playing in the garden. As an ISA Certified Arborist I get to look at a lot of trees and how they are affected. Many times I hear clients asking Will Roundup kill my trees? or, “Will weed killer kill my trees?”

Tree stumps can be incredibly dangerous if left unattended, often acting as the culprit of some pretty nasty falls and stubbed toes. Furthermore, if you leave the stump long enough it runs the risk of becoming covered in grass, which makes it an invisible trip hazard and destructive to unassuming lawn mowers.
