How to Control Apple Scab Disease Apple Scab occurs in most areas of the world where apples are grown, it is one of the most serious diseases of ornamental crabapple and fruit trees. Our Arborists at L.C.S Lawn and Tree Service, Inc. control Apple Scab with a fungicide spray. Like most fungal diseases, timing of the fungicide applications is important for control of the disease. The fungicide needs to be applied 3 times per year, with the first application performed at bud break, then following up 3-4 weeks later for each additional spray. Apple Scab can be prevented but once symptoms begin it cannot be removed, you will only be able to prevent it from spreading further the following year.
