Please Help! Mulberry Tree

[ChrissyMixx]

Hi everyone, looking for some help.

I just noticed some dark wet soil at the base of my Mulberry. I see small white worms in there. Any idea what could be going on here? I'm worried!

thank you

Mulberrys are just kinda 'oozey' trees. This is common anywhere theres a fresh cut or wound on these trees. Perhaps a new crack opened at the base. I would say the worms are just enjoying the gooey mess to live in.

They're quite prone to wetwood/fluxing and quite a few critters can be found in these areas.

How does the canopy look?
