How Do You Treat Oak Wilt?

Oak wilt is a deadly fungal disease that causes the wilting and eventual death of oak trees. This disease is especially prominent on live oaks, Shumard oaks, Spanish oaks, water oaks, black jack oaks and other members of the red oak family. White oak trees are also susceptible to the infection, but appear to be more tolerant to the effects of oak wilt. However, this doesn’t mean they aren’t at risk.
