Help! Flathead borers attacking persimmon trees

I have a bad flathead borer problem and they are causing all of my shady persimmon trees to be weakened and blown over whenever we have a strong gust of wind. I need help. Does anyone know what I can use to get rid of them?

I have no idea what the heck a flathead borer is but if its an insect you can use some insecticide but if they can't fly and live on the tree do what I'm doing for my dwarf alberta spruce tree who's needles are turning brown beacause of spider mites just kill them by taking a hose and blasting them with it.
