The Hidden Hazards of Unremoved Tree Stumps
Old tree stumps left in your yard aren’t just an eyesore—they can cause significant safety and maintenance issues:
Tripping hazards for children, pets, and visitors.
Attract wood-boring insects and termites that threaten nearby plants or structures.
Obstruction for mowing, landscaping, and construction activities.
Potential fungal diseases that persist underground.
Limit usable outdoor space.
Failing to promptly remove stumps risks injury and property damage. If you notice any of these problems, timely professional stump grinding or removal is essential.
Why DIY Stump Removal Often Fails
Many homeowners try to remove stumps themselves using chemicals, burning, or manual digging. Without proper tools or expertise, these methods can:
Take months or even years to fully degrade the stump.
Damage to surrounding vegetation, soil, or underground utilities.
Pose fire risks with burning attempts.
Result in uneven ground left behind.
Choosing Bob Evans Tree Service guarantees safe, fast, and complete stump elimination.

Customer Reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Bob was quick to return my phone call requesting an estimate- and was able to conduct it for us approximately one week later. The job was hindered by rain, but the tree removal was done to our satisfaction once mother nature cooperated. All debris was removed with no small branches left in the yard. At our request, he left two piles of mulch to use in our flower beds. Both Bob and his employee were very respectful and answered all my questions about the process and even made some recommedations to other smaller trees to install later on to provide shade.
