None of us want to get a tree removed unless it is necessary, so in situations where your tree either poses a fall or safety risk or if it is just dead or cannot be saved, you have to opt for tree removal. Now, there are plenty of tree service companies that offer tree removal services as well, but the process involves leaving the stump behind. To get rid of the stump itself, you have to either get it removed or you can get it ground, and the latter is usually the better option. So, if your current tree service company does not offer it, look up other companies that offer their services in stump grinding Port St Lucie FL.

Stump grinding is the process of using a grinding machine (the size of which varies depending on the size of the stump and company preference) to effectively grind and remove the entire stump. This is a more efficient and quicker way of getting rid of the stump as opposed to opting for removal. Stump grinding machines will go a few inches below the ground level to remove as much as possible, but they will usually leave the roots behind, especially if they are very invasive underground. This is faster than the process of getting the stump removed, is cleaner, and generally more efficient.

You can of course choose to leave your tree stump as is, however, that means that the tree stump will then spend the next few years slowly decaying as is, and this decaying process will, in turn, attract potential termites, and become a feeding ground for fungi, pests, diseases, and other microorganisms, all of which can be pretty harmful. So, if you want to play it safe, get your stump ground.
