To prevent the spread of diseases clean and disinfect your pruning shears with alcohol or bleach ahead of your first plant and between plants. This is especially important to prevent the spread of Crown Gall caused by the bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens.  The only easy way to get rid of crown gall is to destroy the bush and the soil before replanting.  By destroying only the bush it takes up to 8 years for the soil to rid itself of the bacteria that causes the disease.  This past year I destroyed 8 bushes and the soil because of not keeping my pruning shears disinfected.
