Empress Tree Problem with bugs

Florence, KY

I have an Empress tree and have had it for 5 or 6 years. Never had a problem till 2 years ago I started seeing holes in the leaves and pretty soon all the leaves were being eaten away, almost killed the tree. This year I was told to get a certain poison to spray the tree but it doesn't seem to be helping. I have looked real hard at the leaves and don't see any bugs so I'm not sure if its bugs eating the leaves or some disease. The only thing I do notice is there are a lot of wasps flying around on the leaves which I don't remember seeing in years past. Anyone have any idea what I'm dealing with and how to fix it?
