Great idea. I've tried poisoning it with glyphosphate (I'm not a fan of poison either). I didn't think of drilling holes, so I'll have to try that. Thanks for your advice.
Good luck! This works best right after you cut a tree down, but I've found it works on older stumps too. Make sure you drill the holes near the cambium of the tree so the poison is transported into the roots
