To prevent and control Rose Black Spot, it is important to implement integrated pest management practices. This includes regular pruning to promote good air circulation, watering at the base of the plants to avoid wetting the leaves, and removing infected leaves. Additionally, preventative fungicides can be applied during times of highest risk of infection.
