  Not really, if minor case cut off affected limbs and monitor. trees can live a while with this problem. however more often tree needs to be felled and waste burned on site. sterilise tools after use and footware save spreading
  
  hope that helps

  To my knowlage , there is nothing one can do. Working on MoD sites at the moment , I have to look at horrible large number of trees cathegorized by our Arbo. Specialist to be felt. The problem is that this thing is spreading like mad infecting avenues. Sad but felling is the only action.
