how do i kill a tree root ball?

the tree LIQUID AMBER. i had one cut down before it fell down. in hindsight, if it fell, the rootball wouldnt be an issue. the ground was heaving on one side and the tree was leaning.

i had a pro come and cut it down, and they ground down the stump. 8" down. i wish the pro tree guy would have suggested i dug out the root, or offered to do it for me at a cost.

now? i get the occasional shoot coming out of the tree root. it is trying like hell to become a tree again. i hammer, best i can thru that root with a digging bar. i squirt in some concentrated Round-up. i feel like i am trying to piss on a big fire.

digging out the root; that ship has sailed. my yard is landscaped now

dynamite would be awesome, but a no-go. biology class 101 is telling me - no photosynthesis, no tree. but damn..this thing has a huge energy storage i suppose.
