I lost two massive red oaks this past year and have another two in decline.
While I have not yet been diagnosed specifically with oak wilt my county

There has been some work done in GA (I think) trenching between infected
and uninfected trees as a means of preventing root grafts. They've got
some sort of vibrating plow thing that does relatively little damage.
