Hi - many of our maple leaves here in Toronto, ON have big black blotches.

A neighbour tells me there is a newspaper article warning against composting leaves with these blotches. Anybody know what the black blotch might be and whether there are issues with using these leaves in composters?

Would I be spreading some fungal plant disease?

Cheerss, Mike in Toronto, ON.
