Default Split tree trunk

Hi Group,

We noticed a few days ago that one of our jack pines has a vertical split in
it. It's at almost ground level upwards at least 3.5 feet and is now about
a 1/4" wide. Can anything be done to help this? Will it damage or kill the
tree? This tree is one of our smaller ones... maybe 8" in diameter. We
noticed also that the woodpeckers have been at this tree more than the one
beside it this winter.
Any ideas?
