If you plan to have a tree removed from your property, you should make sure that you go the extra step and have the stump removed as well. The most efficient way to accomplish this is with stump grinding. During the days before the company comes to cut the limbs and trunk to reduce the tree to just a stump, you should also arrange for the grinding service.
Good Reasons
One of the best reasons for removing the stump completely has to do with appearance. Leaving this obstacle in your yard just isn’t pretty. Property owners who are meticulous about their lawns and gardens will almost always make sure to arrange for professional stump grinding in Indianapolis, IN. You may also be able to prevent problems in the future because a stump left in the middle of an open yard can be dangerous. Children tend to like climbing and jumping on them when they have the opportunity.
They may also be running and trip during their play. This can be a serious liability if someone other than a family member trips (neighbor, delivery person). You might also want to consider the inconvenience of mowing and trimming around this obstruction.
Insects, New Growth
New growth and insects are two of the primary problems with not using stump grinding. Outdoor creatures and insects will find this fresh wood very attractive as a home and maybe as a food source. The stump may even lead to new growth, which will be unattractive and create more yard work.
You’ll also find that this new growth will pull moisture and nutrients from the ground around the stump, making it more difficult to maintain healthy plants and flowers in that area.
