Stump removal - JolietteShould you grind a stump or not after felling a tree? There is no doubt that the easiest thing to do is to leave the stump in place. Removing a stump is not easy and it takes time when you don't have the proper equipment. There is an even simpler option. It is to ask us to remove the stump immediately after the felling. You can also ask us about our other tree care services. The following will show you that there are plenty of reasons to get rid of that troublesome remnant.
Why proceed with a stump grinding?
Many people enjoy stumps. However, they often forget how easy it is to stumble on them. Falls can result in injuries of varying severity. If it happens to guests, not only can it be annoying, but conflicts can ensue. Not to mention that you are passing on the idea of poor groundskeeping by leaving your stump in place.

An abandoned stump attracts insects, even...
carpenter ants
Stumps can attract many insects. One of these is carpenter ants. Carpenter ants will set up other nests all around and well away from their main nest. This means that even if the embarrassing stump is far enough away from your home, your home could still be invaded by these critters. While this is a rarer inconvenience than for other insects, they can still be a huge nuisance. The very idea that this could happen is a convincing deterrent.
Mushrooms particularly like stumps
Another problem with an abandoned stump is the amount of mushrooms that will grow on the ground or line the stump. In this case, the most serious incident that could occur is a child eating the mushroom, even though it is toxic. Another situation that no one wants to risk!
Stump push-ups
The other possible problem may seem trivial. It is the shoots. These will proliferate. If you neglect to cut them off, they will become trees, but they may not develop well. The result will be disappointing. If you have made a beautiful arrangement, it will be compromised by these shoots. This is totally unnecessary maintenance. To avoid it, resort to Emondage Joliette's stump removal, among our range of tree maintenance services. You can reach us at 450-499-7775.
Grinding a stump is a guarantee of security on your property, and therefore of peace of mind
The safety aspect of a stump that has not been removed has already been discussed. However, one must be aware that the mere possibility of an accident is disturbing. It is not as easy to relax on your land in this case. Removing a stump avoids such annoyances. Our grinder can avoid them so easily!
One less stump can mean a faster sale of your property
Let's say you sell your home in the future. In addition to conveying an image of neglect, prospects might worry that a tree disease is involved. Assuring them that it isn't would probably be pointless. Buyers want a minimum of trouble when they move in. You might as well remove your stump right away, and you'll gain some much-needed free space!
Why is it best to avoid using chemicals to remove a stump?
If the idea of removing your stump yourself with chemicals crosses your mind, we strongly advise against it. They could contaminate the water table or even the vegetation in your own yard. Children or animals could inadvertently ingest them if you spill them on the ground. In addition, the method is often disappointing because it is not as effective as users thought it would be. The environment and health are important!
Use a tractor or an excavator?
Why not a tractor or a backhoe then? Because you'd be left with a lot of ground to repair. As you drive around, the tracks or big wheels will dig ugly ruts. They will tear up your lawn. You will have to rework the soil and turn it over. At Emondage Joliette, our grinder does the job in the cleanest and most efficient way possible. This specialized equipment is the one to entrust with the job for a truly satisfactory result.
