Oak Wilt Treatment Cordillera Ranch, TX - Central Texas Tree Service

What is Oak Wilt?

Oak Wilt is a highly virulent and destructive disease that affects oak trees. This disease, primarily observed in Central Texas, including Cordillera Ranch, Boerne, and San Antonio, is caused by the fungus Bretziella fagacearum.

​

Oak Wilt disrupts the oak tree's water conducting system, leading to wilting, a sign of Oak Wilt diagnosis, and eventually death.

​

Due to the high population of oak trees in Cordillera Ranch, Texas, Oak Wilt poses a serious threat to our Texas oaks, highlighting the importance of diagnosing Oak Wilt early to protect our trees effectively.

​

Symptoms and Signs

The first signs of Oak Wilt often include wilting, browning, and premature leaf drop. The disease usually starts at the top of the tree and progresses downwards.

 

Different species of oaks exhibit different symptoms. Red oaks, for example, can die within a few weeks of infection, while white oaks, like Briggs Oak in Liberty Hill, may survive for several years with the disease.

​

How Infection Spreads

Oak Wilt spreads in two primary ways. The first is through root grafts between neighboring trees. When oak trees grow close together, their roots can intertwine and fuse, creating a pathway for the fungus to spread. The second is through sap-feeding beetles that carry spores from infected trees to healthy ones.

These beetles are attracted to the sap produced by fresh wounds on oak trees, making proper pruning practices essential in preventing Oak Wilt. It's important to note that any trees within 50 to 100 yards of infected trees are susceptible to the disease.
