I use 1 part Remedy and 4 parts diesel and basal spray live trees. The paperwork says to allow to stand uncut for 1 year and it kills all the way through the roots......
I have used drilling stumps and filling with old motor oil and let set for a month or two and build a fire on it and it works well for me as well.....I have tried the drilling and filling with various stump killers and met with limited success....
When guns are outlawed only criminals and the government will have them and at that time I will see very little difference in either!

Drill several 1/2" holes in the tree trump: pour buttermilk with live culture in the holes. set back and watch the stump deteriorate.
I’ve tried to burn green stumps a number of times. I never got very far. Maybe the ground is too moist here, but I could never burn much below the surface. I’ve broke several chains trying to pull them out with a tractor. Thank God those days are over. Now this is only a small one, it is growing out of a wall, but if I tried to pull it out, I’m sure I will pull the whole wall down.
First I considered drilling holes and filling them with rock salt. That may stop it from sprouting, but it may end up preserving it too. There are a lot of good ideas posted here. Something to kick off the natural rooting process is probably what I need. Buttermilk? Maybe.
If you drill your holes with a .45, you can get more of what ever product you use into the stump than if you used a .22 or .38
Has anyone mentioned detcord yet?
C4 for the win.
I've long wondered what the power companies use in the pellets they fire into 'problem' trees, to kill them, seems quite effective!

I think it's a fairly quiet air rifle or pistol, i have heard of it but not seen it. whatever it is apparently is tr4ee kryptonite, effectively. Power companies hate arguing on cutting a tree which they KNOW will grow up and touch their power lines in a matter of a couploe years, this precludes that.
