Oak Wilt
Another way to notice whether you have oak wilt is to notice discoloration in the leaves—if you have an eye for detail. You might notice a brown color spreading from the tip of the leaf and spreading through, and it might come with a “leaf drop,” so the leaf drops and sags more than usual. This might happen faster than you might think, so the faster you notice it, the better. This might even happen over the course of several years, so if you check often on your trees, it might be something that you notice relatively soon. The most likely time that an oak is infected is the spring and summer, and you’ll also want to check on your trees for damage following any severe storms.
In the end, we know that you want your oak trees as happy and healthy as possible, because they are truly some of the most praised and celebrated trees in the world. In order to successfully prevent oak wilt from occurring, you have to keep the healthy parts of the trees and roots completely separate from the infected portions, which can be done in two ways: mechanically or chemically. We have extensive experience with both methods. For example, we can use a trencher to separate the roots, and fumigants can also kill the roots that are connecting the two. We will also dispose of trees that have already succumbed to oak wilt properly, so that they do not cause you any more issues on the remaining trees. Be sure to contact one of our specialists immediately if you notice signs of oak wilt. To find out more, contact one of our professionals.
