@DoomsdaysCW Useful info, thank you! Do you use a disinfecting spray on your tools?

@redcrew So, I use dilluted bleach on my rose pruners. I also sterilize them in between cuts with alcohol on a paper towel. I've been trying to keep a very old rose bush going (that belonged to my grandmother). It's still going, but I have to keep on top of black spot fungus. (I sometimes apply fungicides like neem oil as well).
