Is Fungus Making Your Trees Sick?

When a big tree on your property is stricken with a fungal disease, its health could soon falter. In turn, it could become very susceptible to toppling over in high winds, which could cause major property damage and perhaps even serious injuries. If you have a big tree on your property that appears diseased, you’ll want to have the local arborist come out to take a look and see if it needs to be safely taken down. At Primetime Pruning & Tree Removals, we can assess your tree’s health and determine if it needs to be cut down before it crashes down on its own. Here are four common fungal diseases in trees.

Powdery Mildew

Powdery mildew causes white blotches on leaves. These blotches tend to look fuzzy or powdery. While powdery mildew doesn’t typically kill trees outright, it can cause serious health issues such as leaves turning brown and then falling off. This disease can afflict just about any kind of tree.

Comandra Blister Rust

Comandra blister rust is a fungal disease that attacks pine trees’ inner bark. It’s particularly known for affecting lodgepole pines. Signs that a tree is suffering from comandra blister rust include orange bands around the bark, as well growth reduction and deformity.

Pouch Fungus

Pouch fungus, which commonly affects ponderosa pines, is spread by bark beetles, which carry the spores with them when they infest dead or dying trees. The fruiting bodies of pouch fungus are small and usually cream-colored to tan. Typically, pouch fungus is found on dead trees, so if you see these fruiting bodies, your tree has likely already died, meaning it should be safely cut down by an arborist.

Anthracnose

Anthracnose causes dark lesions to develop on leaves, which then fall off. Anthracnose doesn’t usually kill the tree itself, but can weaken the tree and make it more likely to die young. Maple and ash are two tree species that are particularly known for being afflicted by anthracnose.
