Free From Unwanted Growth and Pests

When a stump is left after cutting the tree, there are unwanted plants sprout up such as weeds that grow around it and absorb the water and nutrients in the soil. It can be damaging to the nearby valuable plants who are left with very few nutrients for proper growth. It is also very appealing to insects and rodents.
