  • Tree Stump - Diesel?

    Anyone used diesel to kill a tree stump? I had a tree cut down today and that's what the guy recommended......does it work and is it the same diesel you'd get from a petrol station? (Never heard of this until today!)

        Thanks guys - the bloke has already drilled some holes. I suppose I can just buy a can of diesel from a petrol station?

          you might have to buy one of those gallon plastic petrol containers......they wont let you fill anything thats not kosher.

                See what the Minimum on the Pump is.....Diesel is not a spirit so you may not have to buy a special container...

                    A gallon of Creosote would probably more effective .

                      I'll just go in and ask them what to do - I'm sure it won't be the first time someone's asked about it.
