 Poisoning a tree stump - Ambo
The was a neighbour's massive, triple-stemmed Lawson's Cypress growing close to our mutual boundaries. The roots were cracking our driveway and I feared for our sewer and later our house foundations. We were relieved when a new neighbour had it felled but the stump was too awkwardly placed to grind it down so it was left in place.

Nearly a year on it is producing new shoots, the cracking shows signs of continuing and other shoots are appearing in an adjacent Dutch wall. Before I tackle the neighbour about it are there any other suggestions on killing it off? The roots must be approaching his property too but there are no external signs as yet.
