Can a healthy pin oak survive removal of 2 large roots in driveway repaving?

Mary Ann, i love trees but you need to give it a bit of intensive care. Make sure the roots are not weeping to hard and give it some yummy food. A bit of well rotten compost or farm manure and plenty of water through the warmer months. It should survive with plenty of T.L.C.

My large oak has 2 ft strip on side with no bark and quarter size holes, but tree is perfect elsewhere full of leaves with no other signs of dying. Could this tree be rotting and in danger of falling?

You never know that perhaps birds may have made these holes, if tree looks healthy eg Leaves, colour, even Acorns. the Oak is a great tree that can + does survive all sorts of problems, keep an eye open for things which are out of sink. Good luck .

Can other trees Ben infected by oak wilt

Oak wilt, caused by Ceratocystis fagacearum, is a lethal disease of oak (Quercus sp.). The disease is most serious on members of the red oak family, including red oak, scarlet oak, black oak, pin oak, etc. Members of the white oak family are generally not nearly as susceptible: white oak, swamp white oak, burr oak, etc. The disease is analogous to and potentially as serious as Dutch Elm Disease on American Elm. Both are introduced, exotic diseases caused by vascular wilt fungi; both diseases are transmitted by insects; both diseases can be transmitted through root grafts, and both fungi kill their host plants rather quickly.

The roots of our oak tree on our back patio have lifted some of the brick pavers and now headed towards our house. What do I do?

To do it right if you don't want to take the tree out is to lift all the pavers in that area and get a back hoe and dig down where the roots are and remove the roots Sawing them out if needed.sin that area. then put a coating of sand and put the pavers back in. That should last for several years . We did that and lasted for several years.

What is the survival rate and time of a person with multiple myloma (sp?)

Hi, the survival rate for multiple myeloma depends on the stage of disease at the time of diagnosis. The earlier the disease is caught the better the prognosis. Patients receiving conventional chemotherapy typically survive from months to years, with an average survival rate of 2.5 to 3 years. Patients who receive bone marrow transplants have a better chance of prolonged survival.

Take care
