Inspect your bamboo for any fungal spots that may appear as brownish-black circular rings around the plant. Spray the plant with a copper fungicide. Check your plant for pests like aphids. Aphids can leave a residue that creates comfortable environment for mold. Power wash the plant and apply pesticide.
