Control measures include
Avoiding plant stress (nutritional, water), irrigating during periods of drought,
Removal of severely affected branches or plants,
Preventive fungicide applications can help reduce disease.
Copper hydroxide (Kocide), Mancozeb (Fore, etc.), Chlorothalonil (Daconil), or Myclobutanil (Systhane),
Heritage (azoxystrobin) can also reduce disease development.
Fungicides need to be directed to the inside and lower portion of the tree

Disinfect pruning tools in 70 % isopropyl alcoholor 10 % bleach solution between each cut
Avoid heavy nitrogen fertilization, especially in the summer
Avoid splashing water
