Killing Tree Roots
wrote:
I have a few Cottonwood trees that have undermined and damaged the
driveway with their roots. There are other areas of sidewalk that the
damage is just starting.
I want to remove the trees, but unsure of the best approach.
If I cut the trees to a stump will this encourage the roots to grow
more? If I grind the stump, what about the roots under the drive,
will they die off ot try to grow more.
I was thinking of cutting the trees, then killing the stump and roots.
How should this whole thing be approached?
I believe in uprooting trees. When I have wanted to keep a tree,
severing and removing the errant roots is an excellent solution.
