EcoPlug Max - The Answer to Stubborn Tree Stumps

Cutting down a tree doesn’t always solve the problem. In many cases, it creates a new one.
If you’ve noticed shoots or saplings growing back from a cut stump, you’re not alone. Many UK homeowners and landscapers search for how to kill a tree stump, only to find that it’s more persistent than expected.

Many fast-growing deciduous trees will regenerate from both the stump and root system if left untreated. Common culprits include:

• Ash
• Willow
• Poplar
• Lime
• Elm
• Birch
• Alder
• Beech
• Buddleia

You may notice regrowth around the edge of the stump, or from spreading roots (sometimes metres away)

Without proper treatment, one stump can quickly turn into multiple unwanted trees.

If you’re searching for the best tree stump killer in the UK, Ecoplug Max is a proven, professional solution.

Ecoplugs are designed for effective tree stump removal without digging or grinding. It kills the stump and roots from the inside.
Why Choose Ecoplug Max?

• One of the most effective glyphosate tree stump killers available
• Prevents regrowth permanently
• Targets roots directly (no wasted chemical)
• Safer than pouring liquid stump killers or diesel
• Suitable for domestic and professional use
• Ideal for use all year round

Each plug contains a pre-measured dose, making it easy to apply the correct amount every time.

Many people look for how to kill tree roots naturally, but DIY methods often fail or take years.
Liquid chemical stump killers can also:

• Spread into surrounding soil
• Affect nearby plants
• Pose risks to pets and children

Ecoplug Max provides a contained, targeted solution - commonly used by professionals for precise stump treatment.

For the best results, you need the correct drilling depth and hole size.
Using the dedicated drill bit ensures:

• Correct hole depth for maximum effectiveness
• Perfect plug fit
• Faster installation
• Professional results every time

This is especially important if you’re treating multiple stumps or larger trees.

Follow this simple method for reliable results:

• Drill holes around the outer edge of the stump into live wood
• Space holes evenly for full coverage
• Insert one Ecoplug Max into each hole
• Tap firmly into place with a hammer

Once installed, the plug remains sealed inside the stump. Ecoplug Max contains granular glyphosate within a capsule, so after application:

• The active ingredient dissolves naturally
• It travels through the stump and root system
• Growth points are destroyed from within

This stops regrowth completely while allowing the stump to decompose naturally over time.
