Pardon me but Fireblight is a bacteria; hence the agri-mycin sold for its

I stand corrected, Fireblight is a bacteria. You are also correct on fireblight being controlled by streptomycin if applied timely, but I've seen no evidence that KSD is a bacteria or fungus. I'm sure that Drs. Payne & Reighard have looked at that. I believe if KSD were caused by Erwinia amylovora they would have identified it.
