Prevegenics Stump Knocker

Stump Knocker uses a proprietary blend of Lactobacillus species and a decaying catalyst to accelerate the natural breakdown of wood fibers. By introducing these microorganisms directly into the stump, it jumpstarts the biological decay process that would otherwise take years to occur naturally.

Yes, for the best results, you should drill several deep holes into the top of the stump. This allows the concentrate to penetrate the wood fibers and reach the center, where the microorganisms can begin their work most effectively.

Stump Knocker is designed as a natural soil amendment and is generally safe for residential use. However, it is best practice to keep pets and children away from the treated area while the product is being applied and during the initial absorption phase.

While the exact timeline depends on the size and type of the wood, the fast-release nitrogen and microbial enhancement work to speed up the decay significantly compared to untreated stumps. You should notice the wood beginning to soften and break down over the following months.

Yes, maintaining moisture is critical for the microorganisms to remain active. After applying the concentrate into the drilled holes, ensure the area stays damp to facilitate the biological breakdown process.
