milkweed borers on my fiddlewood tree

Fort Myers, FL(Zone 10b)

Help! I have milkweed borers or beetles (orange w/black marking on their back) which decimated my milkweed. I planted new milkweed plants and have been picking them off as they come. Now they are on my fiddlewood tree (about 6 ft high, 2 yrs. old). they don't seem to be killing it, but i'm worried. any thoughts? the fiddlewood is loaded w/bees and i can't spray it.
