It can cause you a lot of trouble if you do not remove the tree stump.

It is important to note that a tree stump left behind after removal does not mean the growth process has ended Stumps in the ground can grow new shoots at the base of the stump during the growing seasons, making them appear even more unsightly. The roots of some trees will continue growing even after the tree was cut down. These roots can spread towards your foundation, causing cracks, or they can interfere with below-ground cables, water pipes, or even your septic tank.
The stump may seem harmless, but it is often anything but. Tree stumps may harbour ants, termites, wood-boring beetles and other insects. It would not be long before an infestation was in full swing. This can cause damage to your property and have an adverse effect on your plant life.

Stump Removal Services Frequently Asked Questions
Is it necessary to stump grind?
While having the stump ground is not always necessary, many people prefer to deal with the stump at the same time as having the tree removed. Stump grinding allows the property owner to use the area where the tree once stood for laying sod or planting a flower bed.
What are the cons of stump grinding?
Root Decay. After stump grinding, the roots are also chopped up. This can lead to decay and fungus growth in the remaining wood. If you have plans to replant the area where the stump was removed, this could be a problem.
Is stump grinding the same as stump removal?
Stump removal is more time and labor-intensive than stump grinding. Plus, after the removal, you'll be left with many steps to take care of afterward, including filling the large hole with soil and hauling away the old trunk and roots. If you're looking for a quicker turnaround, grinding is going to be the best option.
Can you remove a stump without a stump grinder?
The best ways to remove stumps include physical removal by digging it out and cutting away the roots, chemical removal to speed up the natural process of rotting, or using fire to smolder it down.
What happens if you don't grind a tree stump?
Decay and Disease Spread Tree stumps and their root systems will rot and decay over time. Fungi or mold that grows on the stump can be dangerous to your family's health. The rotting root system may also spread disease and infection to other trees or plants in your yard, leaving you with a barren, zombie garden.
