  • Top cycle. Overland Spread . * Spores germinate and infect oak tree. * Infection spreads throughout the tree and leaf symptoms develop. Discoloration develops in the vacular tissue. * Tree dies. * Fungal pressure pads and spore-bearing mats form under bark. * Nitidulids feed in pads and emerge with spores in and on their bodies. * Nitidulids visit fresh wounds on healthy oak and deposit spores. Bottom cycle. Root graft Spread . * Fungal spore move through grafted roots into adjacent uninfected trees. * Healthy tree becomes infected. (en)

  • Early detection and prompt action are essential for successful management of oak wilt. The specific measures taken depend on several circumstances but should include appropriate combinations of the following: * Prevent New Infections ** Remove and dispose of oak wilt-infected red oaks immediately. ** Avoid wounding oak trees, including pruning from, *** February through June in Texas. *** April through October in the Mid-West. ** Sterilize/sanitize all pruning equipment between trees. ** Paint all wounds and fresh stumps immediately regardless of season. ** Handle oak firewood cautiously, burn all firewood before spring, and never store unseasoned oak wood from infected trees near healthy oaks. ** Cover unseasoned firewood with clear plastic and bury the edges of the plastic. * Diversify Your Landscape ** Plant trees that are native and/or adapted to your area. ** Favor a diversity of tree species. ** Avoid wounding oaks during planting. * Stop Spread through Root Connections ** Install a trench at least 4 ft deep and 100 ft beyond the perimeter of infection centers to break up root connections. ** Cut or uproot all trees within the 100-ft barrier . * Inject High-Value Oaks with Fungicide ** Identify susceptible, high-value oak trees in proximity to expanding oak wilt infection centers. ** Consult a trained and licensed arborist for treatment of susceptible trees with injections of propiconazole. (en)
  • Prevent the spread of invasive species and diseases * Don't take firewood with you on your camping trip, RV adventure, or to your hunting camp. * Don't bring firewood back from your second home to your place in the suburbs. * Buy firewood near where you will burn it, or gather firewood on site when permitted. ** A good rule of thumb is only using wood that was cut within 50 miles of where you'll have your fire. * Certified heat-treated firewood is safe to move long distances. * Aged or seasoned wood is still not safe. ** Just because it is dry doesn't mean that bugs can't crawl onto it- and some insects can take several years to mature inside the wood. ** Wood that looks clean and healthy can still have tiny insect eggs, or microscopic fungi spores, that will start a new and deadly infestation.
