I have an infestation on my apple tree which I would like some advice on. It is the main feature of a small garden and I haven't done any pruning in 35 years. This year it had a bad attack of blossom wilt also. I think the infestation has got worse over the years such that 50% of the fruit has fallen already. So, as there are no other apples in the immediate vicinity, is it worth removing all the fruit for a couple of years in order to reduce the population of overwintering as pupa? Or similarly maybe pruning back the fruiting spurs so no fruit for a year and maybe controlling the wilt also?

https://goo.gl/photos/VaEcbjcUw8sSp8bQ9 The above link should enable you all to see some fungus(?) on some apple and crab apple trees. I suspect clearing some space around the trees would be a good first move. I am under the impression that following that it would be sensible to spray with some fungicide. Can anybody educate me further and confirm or otherwise my thinking? Assuming Fungicide is a good thing to do, any recommendations? Many thanks David
