How do you get rid of tree roots so you can plant a new one in the same spot?

First, don't plant a tree that's in the same family of trees. Whatever killed the previous tree could kill the next one. Even if you just cut down the tree, it's still not a good idea. If you're sure the old tree is completely dead, inject it with mushroom spores. That will speed up the process of decaying the old roots. I dunno maybe you could cut the tree, get a big spade and dig out the root. then you could burn it?

What is a basal flare on a tree?
Your tree has roots. You plant the roots. They are at the bottom of the trunk. There is a place on the tree trunk where the roots leave the tree trunk. Above that point, the trunk begins getting smaller until it gets to the same size as the rest of the trunk. The basal flare is the part of the trunk where the trunk starts getting larger just before the roots start leaving the tree. If you can not see the basal flare when you plant the tree, you planted it too deep and you killed the tree.
