By saying cutting down indicates that you are killing the palm. You can cut down the palm with a machete or chainsaw.

Pruning is something different then cutting down. Pruning is when you take a machete, chainsaw, or whatever you got with a sharp edge, and you trim off the leaves from the trunk or crown. By pruning, you sometimes can help the palm tree's growth and sometimes you can stunt the growth, so be careful!

Palm tree stumps are difficult to remove. They have thousands of little roots all the way around the stump, even underneath the stump. These little roots are a major pain because you are digging through them during the entire job.

Palms have very moist wood. If the wood isn't dry, your stump won't burn.

There are chemicals you can buy that, after boring holes into the stump, you pour into the stump and it provides oxygen to make the stump burn hotter. You let it dry for a month or so and pour in some kerosene or diesel fuel and light it. If you followed the recommendations, it burns like charcoal for a few days.

Bonide "Stump Out" is a brand you can look for. See the link to watch Annie tell you how to use it.

How can I remove tree stumps in my yard?

There are two different ways to solve your problem. One is to speed up the rotting process of the stump by covering it with fertilizer and dig around it, piling the dirt up against the stump so that the decay has somewhere to go. Do this for the first year and then after that, continue to treat it with sugar. It is a long process time-wise, but easy on the back. The other option is to dig it out. Dig a trench around your tree stump and use an ax to cut away at any roots you find. Remove the stump and then fill in the hole with dirt.
