Pine pitch canker is caused by a fungus, Fusarium circinatum, which affects pines and Douglas fir. Spores are spread by wind or can be carried in fog or rain and can enter trees or seedlings through wounds caused by hail, wind damage or removal of branches; through damage caused by insects such as beetles or weevils; on seeds; or through the roots. The fungus can live for more than a year in wood.
