Early Signs of Fungal Disease and Root Rot in Summer

Post Copy

The warm, wet conditions that come with a Triangle summer create ideal conditions for fungal disease and root rot, two of the most common threats to otherwise healthy trees in Wake County neighborhoods.

Early signs worth watching for: mushroom-like growths at the base of a tree or on the root flare, bark that looks sunken or discolored at ground level, and branches that leaf out noticeably later or thinner than they did the season before. None of these mean a tree is automatically doomed, but all of them warrant a professional look before the problem advances.

Image / Media Suggestion

An authentic photo showing visible signs of tree disease or root damage, or a job where a compromised tree was professionally removed. If disease-specific photos aren't available, a clear before/after removal of a visibly unhealthy tree communicates the same message. Real job photos are always preferred over stock images.
