To get rid of a Hackberry tree growing out of a hole in a Live Oak tree, carefully cut the Hackberry tree at ground level, ensuring to remove all roots. Monitor for regrowth and repeat if necessary. Be cautious to avoid damaging the Live Oak tree during this process.
Leaves of an oak tree fall off during summer because the oak tree is trying to save the water and minerals of the tree. i.e. the tree is trying to reduce the amount of transpiration which takes place through heavy sunlight. So by getting rid of leaves the amount of transpiration reduces and the oak tree won't die.

So happy ! I just cured my indoor basil plant which was suffering from white little aphids all over it!! All I did was dunk the stem and leaves of the plant into a solution of Oak leaves and water. I did this once a day for 2 days. ( 99.99% cure after the first dunk !) (I had a bunch of oak leaves which I had previously torn up in to shreds and soaked overnight in a large bowl of water .) Also I changed the plants location to the bathroom (away from 2 other plants it was with ?not sure if relevant??!)- Lawrence
Yes, planting chives in the garden helps get rid of aphids.Specifically, aphids disdain strongly aromatic plants. Alliums such as chives, garlic, leeks, onions and shallots fit the bill. They will be repugnant to such unlikeable pests as aphids, carrot flies, fruit tree borers, and weevils. They will limit the growth of the gardener's beans and peas - which therefore should not be planted companionably nearby - but protect roses from ants.

The bark of oak trees peels off as part of the tree's natural growth process. As the tree expands in girth, the outer bark layer becomes tight and eventually cracks and peels away to make room for new growth. This shedding of bark also helps the tree get rid of any accumulated pests or diseases.
