Alright so has anyone had a tree with a sore like the one shown in this photo and is there anything that needs to be done. This is a large shumard oak. The split had an ant hill inside but I sprayed it and killed them. Is there another insect that I should be worried about? Other than that it doesn’t show any signs of limbs or other stressors. I don’t want to remove the tree. If it’s treatable I’d like to know what can be done. Thanks in advance

It looks like there is a pile of dirt/sand or something at the base of the tree. What is that?
Looks like the wounds I had on my ash from a emerald ash borer
