When a tree is cut down, it leaves a stump behind. In some situations, it’s fine to leave the stump there and let it decompose naturally, but in other cases, you will need to have the stump removed. Our team at Hudson Tree Services can help you get rid of problematic stumps with our stump grinding services.
In this article, we’ll go over a couple reasons why you should make use of our services whenever you have a tree removed. Here are a few benefits of removing a stump from your property:
- Reclaim space – You might want to use our stump grinding services is to make more room in your yard. Stumps take up valuable space, and by removing them, you can reclaim that space for your own use. Removing stumps from your land also makes it easier to do things like mow the lawn.
- Halt further growth – Trees are some of the most resilient plants out there, so much so that many trees can continue to grow even when they have been reduced to stumps. If you’ve ever seen straight twigs growing up from a tree stump, you know what we are talking about. The only sure way to prevent the tree from continuing to grow as a stump is to use our stump grinding services and reduce the stump to mulch.
- Prevent pest problems – Another reason to use our stump grinding services is because stumps tend to attract insects and pests as they decompose. This process is good for the environment, as it creates a whole, tiny ecosystem for all the creatures it attracts, but it is bad news for any buildings nearby, as the insects can move from the stump into your building. Having the stump ground up will prevent this from happening, so we encourage you to do so.
