We have just taken down a very tall eucalyptus tree in our garden-can anybody advise on how to kill the stump and root system that remains. No Koala jokes please!!!

Thanks in advance
 
Hello fluffy47, use the same method as listed in this article for the removal of troublesome roots [broken link removed]
Good luck.

G'Day fluffy (sorry, couldn't resist that).....

I cut down one at the end of last year, beautiful tree but just too big. Anyway, I cut it down to about 12 inches, sawed vertically into the stump, applied 'Root Out', covered it with a plastic bag and an elastic band to keep it in place. About 3 months later I was able to dig up the stump/roots without much hassle !
