Bonide Stump-Out Granules, Do-it-Yourself At Home Stump Removal Pellets, 1 lb. Fast-Acting Formula for Outdoor Use

I cut down a couple of huge ficus trees stumps flush with the ground, drilled a mess of interconnected holes, filled with this stuff, added water & forgot about them. Sometime later I was out at night with my black light & propane torch hunting scorpions. Spotted one on one of the stumps & incinerated the little critter. I didn't notice it, but I also lit the stump on fire, but sometime later Mom smelled the smoke. I waited a while & put the fire out with water. The next day I checked the stump & it was gone. ...and the major roots were charcoal! I waited a week & lit the other stump with the propane torch with similar results. Didn't use any kerosene, just the torch.Highly Recommended!

I had 4 stumps 6 inch diameter and 4 stumps 12 to 18 inch diameter. I didn't have a 1 inch drill bit so I used a 3/4 inch. On the smaller stumps I drilled 1 hole in the middle. On the larger ones I drilled 4 or 5 holes about half-way between the edge and the center of the stump. Filled holes half full of the Stump-Out granules and filled them with water. Waited 6 weeks.Went back, doused each stump with diesel fuel, lit them with a butane charcoal lighter. They burned until the diesel was used up, then they just smoked. I doused them all again with diesel, lit it. Again, the fuel burned up then there was just lots of smoke. At that point I was disappointed and left them alone for the day.Next morning I checked. All 4 small stumps were completely gone! Just a pile of ashes. I guess the smoking is some kind of slow burn until they are gone. The larger stumps are damaged but still there, so I drilled a few more holes in them and have ordered another bottle of Stump-Out to give them a second treatment. I'm optimistic that the second round will finish them off! An easy, inexpensive way of getting rid of the stumps without leaving a hole dug in yard.

it really works. I cut elms, then drill a hole in the center, put the liquid stump out in the hole, or cover it with the powder, put a baggy on top and watch it die back to the roots. Used it for huge trumpet vine, elm saplings, trumpet vine roots. Worked for me and have used it for years.

It's only 1/4 of the way filled. The bottle should be smaller, since there's then barely any product in it

I followed the directions, did it twice, and it didn't do much for my stump. I ended up using my saw and crowbar which was NOT a fun project.

Great product

Easy to use and quick shipping

I received my product (ordered 2) and there was not even half of the actual product in this sizeable container. Here I am thinking I am going to have enough to do 12 small stumps and I would be lucky to have enough for 3-4 at best. I do not appreciate getting a product that barely has any product in it. I already spent $17.54 on this and it is not even going to be enough to do squat. I recommend that if you have several stumps or a large one that you DO NOT order this product because it is a rip off.
