Summer residents quite often cut down trees growing on their plots.

It is relatively easy to do. But removing stumps becomes an impossible task for many gardeners.

The fact is that uprooting tree debris is physically difficult.

Of course, you can just leave the stumps. But then the appearance of the site will not be the best, because the lower parts of the trunks sticking out of the ground look unsightly.

And you can get rid of the remains of trees without pulling them out of the soil.

The summer resident needs to use a plastic bag and two products that are unlikely to be difficult to access.

In addition, you will need several tools.

An unconventional way to remove a stump

The remainder of the felled tree will need to be "dressed" in a plastic bag. But before that, one procedure will need to be performed on the stump.

So, using a drill, you need to make several holes. The resulting depressions should be filled with table salt and saltpeter.

The bag placed on the stump should be secured with something. For example, with a rope.

The wood residue with all its “filling” will decompose quite quickly.
