Began cutting and trenching Oak Wilt corner
Caretaker's note: Suggested remedies to reduce the spread of the Oak Wilt fungal disease are to treat individual trees with a fungicide and in larger areas, trenching 5 feet deep, is recommended. The trenching cuts the roots of the infected trees, and prevents the fungus from spreading through the intertangled root system.
Standard trenching plan: 100 feet from visibly affected area in an arc, with 2 lateral extensions on each edge out another 100 feet, which happened to be along a fence line in the southeast corner. Continue to observe this edge to catch any new infections. Leave standing snags for wildlife
