What Customers Are Saying
The product is generally effective at breaking down and removing tree stumps over time, though the process can be lengthy, often taking several months or even years. Many customers found the product easy to use with straightforward instructions. However, some customers were disappointed, stating the product did not work at all or took an excessively long time to see results. The quality and effectiveness may vary, with some customers receiving partially solidified or ineffective batches. Patience is required, as this is not an overnight solution.

Would RecommendEasy to apply. Make sure you read the direction before using. May not be right for all removals based on size and location of stump.

Spectracide Stump Remover to the rescue
Would RecommendUnable to fit a stump grinding into my back yard, I remembered this product I had used 15 years ago on 3 cotton wood stumps. It work excellently then, and I am back again to allow Spectracide to clear the way for my new patio. DN

Be patient.
Would RecommendYou need to be patient with this stuff, it doesn’t work overnight. I drilled holes in the trunk, put in the contents, and added hot water. A couple of months later I was able to take an ax to it and got it down to ground level.

Stump Remover
I added this to my tree stump. I can already see progress after one week. Its a slow progress, it will take time. I just use hot water from my coffee maker to help dissolve the granules faster.

Spectracide Stump remover
Would RecommendOne must look up instructions on the internet to use this stuff. A powerful drill (not a cordless) is necessary to drill the holes in the stump. I have no idea if it will work because it takes 3 months to take effect.

Good stuff
Would RecommendIt works well, but does take some time to completely rot out the stump (2-3 months). I just drilled numerous 3/4 inch holes in the stump and kept powder full.

I will die before the tree stump does
Would Not RecommendI have been using this product for over a year on a tree stump with a diameter of 8 inches. Drill holes 6-10 inches deep and only the bark has peeled off one side in that time. Recommend the epsom salt trick over this.

Best Stump Remover
Would RecommendI needed to relace my backyard fence, but a tree has grown on the fence line. I had the tree cut down, but removing the stump was more difficult, since stump remover equipment could not be used because of the location. I purchased Spectracide Stump Remover and the instruction were very simple, and after the 8 week period specified, the stump decayed enough that its removal was easy. I would recommend this product to anyone needing to remove a tree stump.

Will it work?
Would RecommendFrom the other reviews I read, this product takes time to see results. I am 2 weeks into the wait and will follow up in the near future.

Get rid of unwanted stumps
Would RecommendI took out several holly bushes from the front of my house and they started growing back. By following the directions, the stumps are now history. I would recommend this product for anyone.
