Getting rid of an unwanted tree doesn\u2019t end with cutting it down (that\u2019s the easy part!) Even after cutting it up and hauling it off or chipping it, you will be left with a stump, and this can be where the real work starts.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve seen people try to get around this with various methods, including burning the stump, which is so dangerous I can\u2019t believe people do it.\u00a0 The fire can easily travel underground through the roots, starting other fires.\u00a0 But in this video, the method of using a farm jack<\/strong> to lift the stump while cutting the roots is clearly demonstrated.\u00a0 This method might not be as easy as burning the stump, but it is quicker, and much safer.<\/p>\n
