What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise this product as an effective, cost-saving stump removal solution that kills growth and decomposes wood over time. Most highlight that success requires drilling holes, applying granules, waiting weeks, and burning out roots with kerosene—a labor-intensive but rewarding process. Many note the wood becomes brittle and removable by hand after decomposition. Reviewers appreciate the simplicity of application and value compared to professional grinding. Some express frustration with the slow timeline or unclear burning instructions, and a few report minimal results. Overall, customers who followed the complete procedure found it worthwhile.

Would RecommendI had some trees cut and a few were so close to the house they couldn't be ground up. This helped the rotting process immediately.

Takes to long
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted something that would take care of stump quickly. This product is more of a "long term" solution. I drilled holes in the stump and put the product in as instructed. At the end of a couple of months, I saw nothing. In the end, I rented a stump grinder and took care of the problem much quicker. If you have time and don't care about the look of a stump in your yard, then this product might work. If you want the stump GONE - go rent a stump...

Bonide!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hey hi! So bear with me…lol. The only other time I have ever removed a stump before in my life was when I was in my late 20’s to 30’s and I’m 48. I used a shovels l, poison, and such to try to remove a cat claw root. That worked for awhile. Bonide involves was less work!

It’s ok
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not sure what exactly I expected but after ready the directions this was not it. I had to drill multiple holes straight down and diagonally through the stump. I then had to pour the Stump Removal Granules into the holes. Wait a few weeks and then set it on fire. Yea that was fun. No clue if it worked.

Didnt work but also hard to use
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This item didn't really work but it's also hard to use it so might not have gotten the full value of it. The first thing is that you have to pour the powder into holes you drill in the stump. The powder is very fine and doesn't flow easily, the bottle opening makes it difficult to pour in to the holes, I had to get a spoon and put it in. The next step is to fill the hole with water, when adding water to the holes, the water pushes the powder ou...

Effective
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bonide Stump Out DIY Stump Removal Granules are an effective way to accelerate the decomposition of leftover stumps without the need for special equipment such as a stump grinder. It is also safe enough to not harm any other surrounding vegetation.

Works really well!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an amazing process to prevent stumps from regrowing. We have had several trees that were too close to our house and we needed to chop them down. This was easy to use and has prevented any sort of regrowth.

Easy to use
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is so simple to use. You just put some holes in your stump and pour this in, follow with some water and walk away. It has been 30 days, although the stump is still there and probably will be for a few more months all of the little side growths have stopped so I think the stump is finally dead.

Works Great!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had a bunch of trees taken out and the stumps and roots were all over the front yard. This stuff made it so much easier to get rid of the stumps and roots without ruining the yard with a bunch of tools.

It works!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always been skeptical that this stuff works and I was pleasantly surprised once I used it. I have had 2 stumps in my yard for 3 years and they are such an eyesore. I poured this on them and they started to deteriorate within a couple of weeks! I absolutely highly recommend!

Easy to use
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’ve had an issue getting rid of a palm tree.Tthe sprouts show up frequently around our home so we’re constantly pulling them out they’re annoying. We are hoping these stump granules will take care of the stumps my husband has cut. The granules are so convenient to use and we’re hoping it will take care of the problem.
From bonide
Just okay.
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To be honest, my husband used this and it only helped a tiny bit. It is very straightforward to use so we didn't have any problems with it. Maybe we didn't leave it long enough before getting to work but it seemed to only make a little difference. I would still recommend it for someone who uses this kind of thing often.
From bonide
Nothing happening
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well I was excited to try this product but unfortunately I am dissatisfied with it. This has been taking longer then expected. I really don’t see anything happening during more than 5 weeks of use. This product is not for me.

Great Stump Removal!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a very good experience with stump out. When we moved into our home there was a stump growing in the middle of our fence, we drilled a few holes in the stump and poured the stump out in. In a few weeks the stump is much more manageable now and not taking over our fence! I highly recommend it!

Works Great!!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my first time trying Bonide Stupid Out DIY Stump Removal Granules and at first I was skeptical about it, I'm not gonna lie but it actually worked!!! I just didn't want to spend the money to have it removed so I gave this a try and it did not disappoint me!! It wasn't a huge stump but wasn't a tiny stump either it was average size!! We followed the directions and once it was porous we lit it on fire and it burnt it down to the roots!! I...
