In a similar situation I dug as much as I could around the stumps. Fastened
a chain to the stump and my Pickup truck and pulled them out with no
problem.
Depends on what kind of tree and how deep the roots are.

Good luck..

I have 3 tree stumps. One is about a 1 foot in length and level with the
ground.

The other 2 stumps fell from trees that actually lifted the surroundiing
grass with it, so that the
stumps are on an angle with the grass surrounding them pulled up.

I want to remove all 3 stumps. I gather I can rent a "stump grinder from
the local outlet." However,
is there some kind of "chemical treatment" that is cheap to get rid ot
these. I have heard that
stump grinders are dangerous. I can get someone to do it, but as I am
feeling "handy",
I would like to save some money and remove them myself.

BTW, all of the actual trees were removed by myself with much time and
energy with the aid of a
chain saw and many sore muscles.

Thanks in advance,
