Fire blight is a bacterial disease that targets fruit trees and ornamental plants. Once it takes hold, the ends of plants will appear as if they’ve been scorched. The disease also affects the twigs, branches, and trunks, and can even be transmitted to other plants by wind, rain, or insect activity.

*IDENTIFICATION
Fire blight is caused by the pathogen Erwinia amylovora. When fire blight first develops, sunken cankers will form on the affected plant’s branches and trunk. These cankers may exude a watery bacterial ooze.

As the disease develops, leaves will suddenly wilt, die, and droop to bend towards the ground. Branches, twigs, fruits, and blossoms will appear as if they have been scorched by fire. Affected leaves and blossoms tend to stay attached to the plant, rather than falling off.

*INSPECTION
Fire blight affects fruit-producing trees like apple or pear, and other ornamental plants like rose or spirea. This disease is active in temperatures above 70 degrees fahrenheit in areas with high humidity.

When inspecting for fire blight, be on the lookout for wilted, darkened flowers, fruits, and blossoms, and check branches and trunks for sunken in cankers.

*TREATMENT
Before applying fungicides, prune away infected leaves and branches. Dispose of removed parts off your property to prevent the bacteria from spreading. Thoroughly clean any tools used to stop cross contamination.

To control fire blight on your property, you’ll need to apply a product like Liqui-Cop. Liqui-Cop is a copper-based liquid concentrate used to control fungi and disease.

To reach tree canopies, we recommend you make your application with the Solutions Hose End sprayer.

To control fire blight in apple, pear, and quince trees, mix and apply the labeled rate of ½ to 1 whole teaspoon of product per one gallon of water. Apply 3 gallons of solution to small trees, 6 gallons to medium trees, and 9 gallons to large trees. Make the initial application at 10% bloom and repeat at no less than 5 to 7 day intervals throughout the bloom period. Aim for complete coverage of the plant’s foliage.

For ornamental plants like rose bushes, we recommend you make these applications with a handheld pump sprayer. Mix and apply the labeled rate of 2 teaspoons of product per one gallon of water. Make your initial application at the first sign of disease and repeat at 7 to 14 day intervals as needed. Spray from above and below the leave’s surfaces for complete coverage.

*PREVENTION
Fungicides work most effectively as preventative treatments. Even if signs of infection are not present, fungicide applications will stop the development of diseases like fire blight and protect plants on your property. Application directions listed in Treatment may be used for Prevention. For apple, pear, and quince trees, apply the labeled solution in 5 to 7 day intervals. For rose bushes, apply the labeled solution in 7 to 14 day intervals. Different plant species have different limitations for how much product may be applied per year. Read the label thoroughly for more information regarding annual application rates.
