We would occasionally get the tent caterpillars (web worms) in my dad's orchard. They can go through a tree pretty fast. I have used Bacillus Thuringiensis on caterpillars in the past with good results. Its a bacteria that effects bugs only so no harmful side effectsDead. Just takes a little longer then other chemicals.

here in nj they call them things gypsy moths. looks like the same webs to me.  i know that they have caused damage to a lot of trees around here. townships have sprayed some kind of insecticide but as usual it was done after they got out of control.Censored

Magnet1 has  the right answer for you Joel.  Us a  Systemic insecticide  that is listed for that species of tree and follow the lable.  Its what we use to control similar pests in our citrus groves.  The systemic is absorbed by the plant and is translocated throughout the whole tree to attack anything that is chewing,sucking,etc. on it.  You can treat the problem w/ contact insecticides but ther'e not as select and require better application equipment.   The only other thing is to find its( the pest) natural preditor, if it has one,  and release it ( called biological pest control)  and let nature take its course.  We use all three methods ........ Or you can do nothing !!!
