Lawn care is an important part of maintaining your property, whether you have a heavily wooded lot or just a few beautiful trees you hope to keep. Many homeowners also deal with stumps on their property, whether from recently removed trees or actions taken by previous owners. While they are certainly an eyesore, you might be wondering whether stump removal is worth the time and money.

Why You Should Remove Tree Stumps

Make Lawn Care Easy

Stump RemovalStumps can make caring for the rest of your yard difficult. Children have to look out for them if they are playing on the lawn, and their shape makes them tricky to maneuver around without damaging your mower blades. Having a stump removed ensures they won’t get in the way if you have future gatherings in your yard.

Reduce Insect Activity

Even if a tree wasn’t removed due to an insect infestation, bugs will still be attracted to the stump. It can take years for a stump to decay in your yard, and, before it’s gone, you will see lots of activity from insects you would rather keep away from your home, including damaging termites. Stump removal reduces insect activity and keeps your home safer from potential damage. 

Enhance Your Lawn

Stumps are not an attractive addition to a carefully landscaped and maintained yard. Most homeowners choose to remove them because they’re tired of seeing the eyesore in the lawn they have worked hard to keep healthy and beautiful. Although stump removal will leave a hole in your yard at first, it can be quickly replaced with various landscaping options, including grass, a fire pit, or a walkway.
