Hello Permies. I’ve started noticing what I believe to be oak wilt in the forest surrounding my home. The first tree snapped a few months after I noticed the damaged bark. This is the second. Now I'm on the hunt for more! I’d love to get a confirmation that this is indeed oak wilt and any suggestions that could help me deal with it.

How disheartening!
Do the scabs show up all over the tree trunk or primarily low to the ground?

Joy to You

Hi Angela.
They’re showing up near the bottom of both trees affected. The first tree is near my cabin and nearly hit it. It snapped like a twig in a windstorm.

I've read about this kind of thing at the checkout counter. That's where I met this tiny ad:
