I have a stump that will need to be removed next spring. For years, I
have seen these cans of stump remover in the hardware stores. I have
always assumed, and still do, that they are a complete and total
crock. Does anyone have experience here.

Thank you.

Years ago people would drill 1" holes in the stump and fill them with
"saltpeter" (sodium nitrate). After several months a fire built over
the stump would burn it out. I've never done it myself so I can't
vouch for the technique.
