Slash and burn is your only man here. There is no known fungicide that the will kill off the fungus. Google "BOX BLIGHT" and get

The RHS is the best advice probably in the world.
BTW, as a general rule the coming month is generally a good time for applying anti-fungicides to FRUIT trees. Just before or during bud-burst. _________________ Retired trouble-maker. twitters @walltoall and dreams of being promoted to Pedunculate Oaker. |
