PMD is already able to find unused private methods and fields that are not used thus they can be removed.
But there will be no Warning if a private method is used by an other private method that is not used and so on.
example where both private methods are obsolete:
public class PrivateCycles {
private void a() {
b();
}
private void b() {
a();
}
}
Rule:UnusedPrivateMethod (or maybe new rule)
