Top DIY Stump Removal Technique

If you have the remnants of tree you had chopped down previously here is the 2nd easiest stump removal technique. The easiest would be to call a professional, give him some money then sit back with an ice cold cup of tea while the job gets done. 

This technique involves using Epsom salt to get rid of the stump. You can get Epsom salt at your local pharmacy, or Wal-Mart.  You will also need a drill, and a 3/8th drill bit that is over 10 inches long. You can get those items at your local hardware store. Depending on how big the stump is determines how much Epsom salt is needed. If the Stump is really big it is still going to take some time to break down.
