Physical: To limit the spread of L. willkommii, infected branches are cut off the tree. This is done under specific conditions when the weather is dry and during winter. Some problems associated with the cutting of branches is sometimes the tools used are not sanitized properly, which in turn means that spores can be found on the tool and be easily transferred to another tree (Surini, 2004).
