Oak Leaf Spots – Tubakia

Q: My red oak has lots of brown spots on the leaves. Should I do something?
A: I think you’re in the clear. The spots look like Tubakia Leaf Spot. Some years will be worse than others, and many leaves may fall. But there’s not much you can do about it other than rake and remove infected leaves.
