Many people think stump grinding is done purely for the sake of aesthetics, but this isn’t the case. There are quite a few benefits of stump grinding and choosing not to grind tree stumps can pose a few risks. Here’s what you need to know about stump grinding: Stops the spread of diseases - Tree stumps may seem harmless, but they’re not. Skipping stump grinding can lead to the growth of bacteria or fungi. Not only can the bacteria cause people to get sick, but they can also kill any other plants growing on your property. Instead of dealing with the negative repercussions, contact our team about stump grinding services today. Keeps pests away - Stump grinding is a much lower investment than hiring an exterminator, which is what you’ll most likely need if you don’t grind your tree stumps. The tree stumps in your yard are a breeding ground for pests such as ants and termites, which might just make their way into your home. Contact our local tree service company for more information about stump grinding. Improves the aesthetics of your property - Stump grinding automatically improves the aesthetic of your property. Tree stumps are not beautiful like trees, but very unsightly for anyone walking or driving by your home. Improves the safety of your property - Tree stumps can be fun to climb on for kids, but there is always the risk of them falling or touching harmful bacteria while playing on them. To avoid children getting hurt or having an adult trip over a tree stump in the dark, contact our stump grinding team today. Increases space in your yard - Tree stumps take up space on your property that could be used for something else, like installing a pool or building a deck off your home.
