Default tree stump

just chopped tree down now left with stump
any ideas how to stop tree from growing to kill of roots
as roots pushing out wall thks



What sort of wall? On some types of soil, removing a tree can cause
'heave' - the opposite of subsidance - when the water content of the soil
increases due to the loss of the tree.

If it's just a garden wall, you can get a chemical to pour on the stump
which kills it off. I think I used something called SBK.
